Roll the pie crust dough to 1/8 inch thick and cut 6 inch circles using a large coffee can. Place a heaping tablespoon or slightly more of the meat mixture in the center of each circle, then fold over to form a half circle. Seal the edges by crimping with the tines of a fork and set the pies on baking sheets. The pies may also be frozen at this point. In a small bowl, whisk the egg and water with a fork. Brush the egg wash over the tops of the pies.

Bake for 30 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven until golden brown. If baking frozen pies, add an additional 10 minutes.

How easyChef Pro Scores This Recipe
easyChef Pro gives every recipe a health score from 0 to 100, built from more than 30 nutritional parameters including nutrient density, energy density and glycemic impact. It calculates rather than estimates, so the same recipe returns the same score every time.
The number is traceable. You can see exactly which nutrient moved it, so a dish scoring 78 might show fiber pushing it up while sodium pulls it down, alongside the NOVA processing level of each ingredient.
Your health goal changes the calculation itself, not just a filter. easyChef Pro applies clinically derived weighting across six health dimensions, which is why the same dish can score well for one goal and poorly for another.
Swap an ingredient or change the serving size and that math changes with it. Scoring your own version is the only way to see what your kitchen actually produces.
