Potato, Mushroom and Carrot Pasties

1 batch of pie crust dough
3/4 cup carrot, grated
2 Tbls. oil
1 1/2 cup potato, chopped small
1 clove garlic
1 cup mushrooms, chopped small
2 Tbls. fresh parsley leaves
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper

Chill the pie dough until ready to use.

Cook the potato and garlic with the oil, over medium-low heat until the potatoes are softened (they don't have to be completely cooked). Add the mushrooms and cook for a few more minutes, until the mushrooms are soft. Remove from heat. Add the carrots, parsley, salt, and pepper.

Preheat oven to 400° F.

Divide pie dough into 4 equal pieces and roll each into a circle. Spoon a quarter of the filling onto each circle. Fold over the dough and press the edges together. Make a couple of steam vents on the top and place them on a baking sheet. Bake 20-25 minutes, until golden brown.
