• 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
• 1 egg white
• 1 pound lean ground beef
• salt to taste
• 2 (9 inch) unbaked pie shells
• 2 pounds lean ground pork
• 1.5 cups mashed potatoes

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir pork and beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.

Step 3

Mix together cooked meat, mashed potatoes, nutmeg, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until well combined.

Step 4

Line a 9-inch pie dish with 1 pastry crust. Spoon meat mixture into crust. Cover with second pastry crust; seal and flute the edges. Brush top crust with beaten egg white. Shield the edges with aluminum foil to prevent crust from burning.

Step 5

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Remove aluminum foil and continue baking until edges brown, about 15 minutes more.
