Pasty Pasty Pasty

Dinner at home was slightly depressing -- only Mother Dearest and Fath and I around the shortened table. I attempted a strange spinach-salmon-cheese pie, which didn't turn out very good, and I didn't take any pictures of it. With the extra crust, I made two miniature pasty thangs. The entire crust was:

1 c. white flour

1 c. wheat flour

1 tsp salt

2/3 c. shortening

~8 tbsp water

parsley

onion powder

black pepper

And was prepared like a pie crust. For the filling I just stuffed in:

Prepared chicken salad (deli)

shredded mozzarella cheese

diced tomatoes

Then brushed some olive oil around the edges, folded over and closed with a fork. I don't remember how long they baked for! But they were scrumptious, especially re-toasted for leftovers after a day of burning brush with Fath.
