Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
  2. Unroll the refrigerated pie crusts and roll them out slightly. Cut circles larger than muffin cups and fit them into the greased tin.
  3. In a large skillet, brown the ground beef, then add onions and garlic. Cook until onions are translucent. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, mixed vegetables, salt, pepper, and paprika.
  4. Spoon the filling into the crusts, sprinkle with cheese, and add smaller crust circles on top. Seal the edges with a fork.
  5. Brush the tops with an egg wash. Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown.
  6. Cool for 5 minutes before carefully removing from the tin and serve warm.
