Hi Jeannie,
I'm not sure if these are the same, but it's the only ground beef +
biscuit puffs recipe that I could find.
Phaed
Ground Beef Puffs
1 lb. ground beef browned

When browning beef, add onion soup. Let cool and mix in cheese.
Put about 1 tablespoon on a biscuit and pinch shut. Place pinched
side down on cookie sheet. Bake according to directions on biscuit
can. Serve with spicy mustard.
Variation: Use taco seasoning instead of soup mix and jalapeno
cheese. Serve with salsa

Hi Beverly,
Piroshki is a Russian dish. There are many variations. Below is
one that uses dill, but many others use thyme or even rosemary.
I'm also sending one that uses canned biscuits for the pastry and
one with sour cream dough.
Hope one of these suits.
