Even though I have burgers in the fridge, I wanted to make something a little spicier. I used the same recipe for masa that I used to make tamales a couple of weeks ago, spread it into ramekins, topped with a mixture of TVP & taco seasoning and baked in a water bath at 350 for 45 minutes. For the larger ones, I put an extra layer of masa on top as well. Now I can bring these tasty little "pies" with me to work, pop 'em in the microwave and have a yummy, satisfying lunch.
Ready to go into the oven:

Topped with sour creem, ground chipotles and chopped jalapenos:

Edited to add my food for the day: Breakfast was coffee with silk soy vanilla creamer. Lunch was a very dry, cold, veggie burger (no vegenaise and I can't buy any more until after Thanksgiving!) on two pieces of wheat bread (no buns either!) and a bag of Have'a Chips. Dinner was 2 glasses of Soy Nog and two of these little pies.

these mini pantry pies are brilliant!! and perfectly-sized for you to take with you for lunch :0)
I'm inspired by your 'pantry' posts, because I'm pretty much trying to eat out of the pantry these days, too.
They sounds SO good!
So cute! And definitely perfect to bring for work lunches. How inspiring!
