We’re talking straight up comfort food!
If you’re a meat and potatoes kind of person you will probably love these hand pies.
Each one is 7 points for purple, 8 points for blue and green. It may seem a little high in points but they are very filling.

To make these hand pies a little easier I used pre-made biscuits. I used Pillsbury Grands Homestyle Biscuits.
They’re larger biscuits so they’re 6 points each.
You’re going to roll out each biscuit with a rolling pin.
You want to roll it out to 1/8″ thick. Do that with all 8 biscuits.
The filling is going to be flat iron steak, Yukon gold potatoes, onions and carrots.
For the steak and potatoes you want to cut them into about 1/4 inch pieces. Cut the onions and carrots a little smaller than that.
I added 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil to a pan and cooked the potatoes, carrots and onions for about 4 minutes.
You want them to be mostly cooked because they will only be in the oven for about 10 minutes.
After the 4 minutes was up I pushed the potato mixture to the side and added the flat iron steak. I added garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper then cooked the steak for about 2 minutes, until most of the pink was gone. You definitely don’t want to overcook the steak.
I added 1 tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce and stirred together the steak and potatoes. Then I shut the heat off and let the mixture cool for a minute.
Next you want to add the filling to the pie dough. I put a couple of spoonful’s on one side of each pie. Then I folded the dough over and used a fork to seal the edges.
Place the pies on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. I used a pastry brush to brush on egg wash for each pie.
All that’s left to do is bake them!
Bake the hand pies 10-14 minutes, until they are a nice golden color.
Yield: 8 pies (7 points each for blue and purple, 8 points for green)
