Scottish Mince Pie

By: Karen Barbour

"My mother-in-law made this pie in Scotland. It is not a sweet mince pie, but it's easy to make, and a hearty dinner. I serve boiled parsley potatoes and a nice salad with this pie. My children always ask for this pie when they come home to visit."

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
