Natchitoches Meat Pies, Every culture/ethnic group seems to have its own version of meat pies In Latin America, it’s the empanada In Louisiana, it’s the meat pie! This yummy version is different than others I’ve seen on Food com, and is originally from a cooking blog , This meat filling is wonderful! I loved all the flavor in it! The dough was a little hard for me to work with(I couldn’t get it to seal all the way) and for some reason I have a bunch of the filling left over I’m sure I’ll find something to use it for though!
