Savory Meat Pie

By: Paula L'Hirondelle 
"A friend gave me this recipe after I had mentioned that my meat pies lacked 'punch'. The pie has a delicious, distinctive flavor thanks to lots of seasonings. Flecks of carrots peek out of each neat slice. My family especially enjoys this dinner when the weather turns chilly. -Paula L'Hirondelle, Red Deer, Alberta"
