I must be the only one in the forum that thinks mince meat pie tastes nasty!

OK, does anyone remember Scottish Meat Pies? Made from mutton, with a very leathery type of dough cover that looks more like a cardboard tube. Used to buy them at the local Scottish Games when I was a kid. Haven’t had or seen one in 50 years.

Nope, you're NOT alone! As a result I haven't been near one in probably 60 years! LOL

I have forgotten how much I liked mincemeat pie. I have managed to eat half of a pie myself.

Plus I have me a container of Benedictine, and I have put a big dent into it!

Well what about Rumaki, Chicken liver and Water Chestnut wrapped in Bacon? I love the stuff. Ya never hear about it any more.

You could’ve just deleted your previous post.

Just before Christmas I was shopping in the mall and came across this Italian store. They had this almond nougat candy that I remember loving as a kid. Haven't seen it in forever. I bought a few and it's awesome. My GF hated it. LOL

Grandmother came from Greece in the 1940's and made this dish. She passed in 2007 and the recipe with her.
A few relatives have tried and it's been ok but nothing topped hers.

Local Greek restaraunt here in WV makes it occasionally.
Early this year was the 1st time I tried it.
He made it with or without tomato sauce, said without was traditional
