It's just a meat with spinach, onion, carrot, maybe sweet potato, whatever, spices in a crust. Use whatever. Many variations and names. Not much different between a burrito and a soft taco.

The pie crust recipe I've got written down:
2 1/2 C standard flour.
1 1/4 t salt aka a dash
1 T sugar aka a big dash
3/4 C shortening cold I used lard
6 T unsalted butter cold.
8 t - 1/2 C cold water idk what is optimal but make it workable but not like pancake batter

Superman (thx btw) mentioned using cold water and fats and not over-mixing. Everyone needs an essential pastry cutter and big heavy bowl to make crust. Add a little at a time and cut in for small globules and flaky crust. Add water at end to help the flour stick together. Cut into fist sized balls. This made two or three. Rest a few hours in fridge at least before freezing or using.
400 deg. 20-30 min. on a flat cast iron skillet.
