Planned the week
cleaned the cat box
cleaned the fridge
went to the store
Exercise: nope
Reading: Cinema of shadows, Michael West
Media: Dreseden files, 3 episiodes. It doesn't suck, but it's not very good either
Crafting: bat shawl. Finished the bat.
Cooking
Greek Pie
2 14.1 oz boxes Pillsbury Pie Crusts (i'm using a pie sheel)
1 lb ground beef I use ground turkey)
1/3 cup finely diced zucchini (a whole zuke)
¼ cup chopped black olives (1 can of whole, chopped)
1 teaspoon McCormick Greek Seasoning (1 TBSP)
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 egg lightly beaten with a splash of water.
¼ cup crumbled feta cheese
I add half an onion
Tzatziki Dipping Sauce
1 cup plain Greek Yogurt such as Chobani
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 clove garlic minced
2 tablespoon finely grated cucumber, peeled and seeded
Preheat oven to 400.
In a large skillet, brown ground beef stir in garlic and Greek seasoning and salt. Add zucchini and olives and continue cooking until zucchini just starts to soften. Remove from heat.
Roll out each piecrust and cut in half. Spoon a generous amount of filing onto one half of each pie crust half. Top with about a tablespoon of feta cheese. Fold dough over filling and crimp edges with a fork or pinch with your fingers. Place on a baking sheet. Continue with the rest of the pie dough and filling. Brush each pie with egg wash.
Bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove. Serve with Tzatziki sauce.
For the sauce,
Combine all the ingredients in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Makes 8 pies
