Easy Buffalo Chicken Biscuit Empanadas




Hey people, I found a way to make some quick, cheesy, easy empanadas!

I am looking in the fridge and I am like, should I freeze my leftover slow cooker buffalo chicken?

Then I see 3 cans of Pillsbury biscuits and I said, self, YES, self, use them biscuits up!


Talking about simple. I just flattened out the biscuits with my hands.

Place cheese on the bottom then top with the buffalo chicken.


Fold the other end over, press with finger tips to seal, then crimp edges with a fork.


Bake at 375 for 10 minutes, remove from oven, baste with butter and bake another 3-5 minutes to brown the top.


Now eat up people! Note, you could add crumbled blue cheese inside, but Big Goo doesn't like blue cheese, so I omitted it.

But the more cheese the better!

Enjoy
