Directions
Party Empanadas, Elegant Mexican appetizer recipe you can make ahead and freeze Savory and delicious , I enjoyed these very much and made them as an appetizer for Thanksgiving I charred and chopped my own jalapenos but I think for convenience next time I’ll try tossing in the can of green chiles instead Of note, my empanadas leaked a bit at the edges which is I’m sure my fault but I figured I’d mention it as an FYI to others to take an extra few moments to make sure the edges are firmly pinched closed Over-all, quite tasty Thanks for the recipe!, These were so fun to make and even more fun to eat They taste like an appetizer from a great restaurant It made it so easy to just pull these out of the freezer, pop them in the oven My guest had fun trying different savory sauces to dip these in I had some left over meat mixture, used it to make wonderful burritos after my party I can’t wait to enjoy more recipes from carmel houswife
