Ingredients

  • 4 unbaked pie crusts
  • 2 pounds ricotta cheese
  • 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 cup mozzarella cheese
  • 8 eggs
  • At least 1 pound of ham or other coldcuts, roughly chopped

Method

Step 1

Flako pie crust mix doesn't exist anymore so either use prepared refrigerated crusts or make your own. You need 4 of them.

Step 2

Press a a pie crust into the bottom of two 9-in pie plates.

Step 3

In a large bowl mix together cheeses and eggs, reserving a little egg white for brushing the crust if you like. Add the chopped meats. Spoon half of the mixture into each of the pie plates. Top each pie with another pie crust, crimping the edges together. Brush the top with an egg white if you like.

Step 4

Bake at 350° for 45-60 minutes until crust is golden brown. Let cool 10 minutes before serving.
