Steps:
- Choose the filling for your empanadas. Each recipe for filling above will make one batch of 10-12 empanadas.
- Make the filling using the instructions designated below for your choice.
- Heat oil in a skillet. When hot add onions and garlic and saute until tender. Add spinach and cook until spinach is wilted. Add the artichokes and nutmeg and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat, stir in parmesan cheese and allow the mixture to cool slightly before assembling empanadas
- Heat oil in a skillet. When hot add onions and garlic and saute 2-3 minutes. Add jalapeno peppers and cook until all the veggies are soft. Add the tomato paste and beans and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in cilantro.
- In a small bowl, mix together the corn, cheese and diced green onions.
- Preheat the oven to 400° F.
- Lay the disks out on a lightly floured work surface.
- Place a heaping tablespoon of the filling into the center of the dough circle.
- Dampen the edges of the circle with water and fold in half to create a half moon shape.
- Use a fork to press the edges closed.
- Place each empanada onto a baking sheet with about 1 ½ inch of space in between.
- Repeat with the remaining empanada dough and filling to make all 10 empanadas.
- Brush the tops of the empanadas with plant-based milk. Place into the oven and cook for 15-20 minutes or until the pastry puffs up and golden brown.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add lentils, sofrito, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper; cook for 4 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium-low and stir in potatoes, tomato sauce, and olives. Simmer until mixture is warmed through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
- Fill a deep skillet or frying pan with 2 inches vegetable oil and place over medium heat while you assemble the empanadas.
- Set empanada discs on a clean work surface. Add 1/4 cup of lentil-potato mixture to the center of one half of an empanada disc in a half moon shape (so it follows the curve of the wrapper). Wet your fingers in a bowl of water and run them around the entire edge of the wrapper to moisten. Fold the wrapper in half to cover the filling and pinch the edges of the dough together to seal, then use a fork to crimp the edges to secure the wrapper further. Repeat with the remaining discs and filling.
- Once oil has reached 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), add empanadas in a single layer; do not overlap. You will need to cook in batches.
- Fry until empanadas are golden brown and crispy, flipping once or twice so they brown evenly while frying, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Repeat to cook remaining empanadas.

Steps:
- In a large pot, over medium heat, melt the vegetable shortening. Add the onions, shallots, and garlic and cook until they are soft but not browned.
- Lower the heat and add the tomato sauce, tomato paste, chopped mixed green and red peppers, parsley, wine, stock, and mushrooms.
- Bring a large pot of water to the boil. Add the carrots, zucchini, squash, and broccoli and cook until the vegetables are al dente. Add the mixed vegetables and spinach and heat through. Drain the vegetables and put them into an ice bath. When cool, drain well.
- Put the vegetables back into the pot along with the creamed corn. Mix in the red pepper flakes, paprika, oregano, Cajun seasoning, and salt and pepper, to taste. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper.
- Place 1/4 cup vegetable mixture on the middle of each empanada dough disk. Avoid reaching the edges with the filling because oiliness will prevent good sealing. Slightly wet the edges, fold in half, and stick edges together. The shape should resemble a half-moon. Seal by pinching the edge between your thumb and index finger to make a curl about 5 or 6 times. Other sealing procedures like pinching without curling or using a fork to seal will not prevent the juices from leaking.
- Place the finished empanadas on the cookie sheet and brush them with the egg yolk. Cook until they are golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes.
