The empanada recipe from Argentina that I created myself. Delicious and opulent. For this recipe, any type of meat may be used, but make sure to chop it into very little pieces.

Reviews
Nice banana bread. I didn’t have butter, subbed butter flavored Crisco instead, which made it darken more quickly, I think. I find it hard to grate pears so mashed them along with the bananas. I’ve found my oven needs longer while baking, so the loaf needed longer than the stated time to bake. Very nice, moist, and easy banana bread that used up both pears and bnanas. Thank you for the recipe.
