BNers, we’ve shared some really exciting snack recipes in the past—cassava buns, Ghana’s akala, fish roll buns, and more. Today, we’re adding another crowd favourite to the list—meatpie from Kikifoodies, and it’s as good as it gets.
This recipe is the perfect balance of a buttery, flaky crust and a flavourful filling that hits all the right notes. For the crust, Kikifoodies uses a simple mix of flour, butter, salt, and water. Her expert tip is to always use cold butter—it’s the key to achieving that golden, flaky goodness.
For the filling, she combines carrots, Irish potatoes, onions, minced meat, garlic powder, chili, seasoning, and a pinch of salt.
Ready to bring this classic snack to life in your kitchen? Kikifoodies has all the steps you need. Watch her process below:

From fashion to home essentials, the discounts are all over the place, with markdowns ranging from 15% to 70% off. And just a heads-up — all sales are final unless specified otherwise.</p><p>Out of all the stores in Canada, only six have been spared from liquidation so far, according to <a href="https://www.thestar.com/business/hudsons-bay-is-liquidating-heres-what-you-need-to-know/article_7059b0bf-61fe-549d-ad7d-49fb81d48d6b.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Canadian Press</a>.</p><p>Of the six remaining stores, three are in Quebec: the <a href="https://www.mtlblog.com/the-bay-montreal-store-sales" target="_blank">downtown Montreal store on Sainte-Catherine Street</a>, Carrefour Laval, and CF Fairview Pointe-Claire. But even these spots aren't completely safe. They’re also running escalating sales to draw in shoppers while the company's future hangs in the balance.</p><p>As for the other ten Hudson's Bay locations in Quebec, they've already gone into full liquidation mode and are preparing for closure. If the company's restructuring plan doesn't work out, those six supposedly "safe" stores will join the liquidation wave starting April 5, 2025.</p><p>Oh, and if you're one of the 8 million HBC Prime points members, you're out of luck. The program is currently on pause, and gift cards will stop being accepted after April 6. Founded back in 1670, Hudson’s Bay is Canada's oldest retailer. But with more than $1.1 billion in debt, the iconic brand may not survive this financial storm. </p><p>It's expected that Hudson's Bay liquidation will end by Sunday, June 15, 2025. However, some locations could sell out of items before then.</p><p>So, if you're looking for killer deals, now's your chance before it's all gone.</p><p><em>Love this?
