Have you ever seen anyone eat their Pizza with a fork? If you’re one of those people, now you can use that fork with pride…you will need it with this Pizza for sure! 🙂
This Pizza is everything we love about traditional Pizza, it’s cheesy, meaty goodness all snuggled inside 2 layers of flaky Pie Crust. It’s the perfect combo of a flaky, buttery Pot Pie & a delicious Pizza~no one will complain when this hits the table. As a bonus, the smell in your kitchen will be intoxicating…and yes, ‘Pizza Pot Pie’ could totally be a candle! 😉
What you’ll need (feel free to fill your Pie with your own personal favorite Pizza fixin’s):
Forks
1 box of Pillsbury Pie Crust (the 2 pack)
9″ round cake pan
2 cups Shredded Mozzarella
1-lb. mostly cooked Sausage
8 oz. Cream Cheese
1 cup Cherry Tomatoes..sliced in half
1/4 cup Black Olives
A handful of sliced Pepperoni to cover the top
Oregano
1 Egg for Egg Wash
A food processor..optional~but helpful!
Directions:
Blend (in the food processor, or by hand) together the Cream Cheese, Mozzarella, and some Oregano until smooth. Set aside…
Brown up the Sausage until it’s either fully cooked, or almost done cooking through.
Add the Cheese mixture in with the hot Sausage mixture, the heat from the Sausage will melt the Cheese a bit and help it to mix up! Fold in the Tomatoes and Black Olives, until it’s all combined…
Place one of the Pie Crusts evenly into the bottom of the pan and fill it with the filling…
Top it with the other Pie Crust and crimp the edges to seal it.
Slice an “X” into the center for steam release.
Now brush the top with some egg wash…
Sprinkle it with Oregano, and top it with as much Pepperoni as you’d like…
Bake it at 350 for approx. 35-45 minutes, or until it’s golden and hot. Let it cool before cutting into it…
Slice it up Pizza style…
Use a plate and a fork…or not?~
Break through that warm, flaky Pie Crust, into all that Cheesy, Pizza goodness…and dig in! ~Enjoy! 🙂
Well who dont love pizza…an pot pies an to put that concept together **genious** all your recipes are amazing!! Thanks for sharing!!!
First time here…oh my lord, can’t wait to make this. Looks delicious. I’m not a sausage person, so I will be making mine with BACON!!! (*imitating the dog in the commercial…bacon, bacon, bacon!) Happens to be my favorite pizza topping as well, lol. I’ll use the cream cheese, add the black olives and some chopped onions and green peppers. I’m afraid ricotta will end up as a lasagna pot pie. But that’s me. Not into the tomatoes either, but some pizza sauce on the side for dipping should do it. Heavenly! Thank you for sharing.
What a good idea! I love this. Sometimes, when I brought lunch into work, my favorite was left over meatballs and sauce. (All home made – that’s how us “ginzos” from Boston roll!! 🙂 But if I didn’t have sub rolls or bulky rolls, I (sounds nuts, but it works) smashed the room temperature meatballs down with a fork and added enough leftover sauce to make them really moist, but not runny. That way, I “slathered” 🙂 it on scali bread and wrapped it up. This way, you end up with a perfectly eat-able, cold meatball sub.
I’m thinking you could do the same thing here, to change it up a bit. Use left over meatballs in there, too. Add some ricotta and mozzarella and a bit more sauce and wow. 🙂
this recipe sounds amazing I would probably use ground turkey though because I don’t like fatty meat and definitely cream cheese! Yummo
I see your recipes all the time on Facebook love them by the way I just hoping one day you will make a pizza casserole. My grandmother used to make them before she passed away and would love to have it again i know it have sauce and cheese and pepporoni or whatever type of meat or toppings but for the life of me can not remember the type of noodles 🙂 or how long to cook 🙂
That sounds great~ Maybe Lasagna Noodles? Let me know, I’d love to do it in the best way to honor her, and not screw it up! Sounds delicious! 🙂 Thank you for being here.
This sounds great! I think I will try using a little sauce, it will have to be Chef Boyardee pizza sauce! Sausage, onions,and mushrooms!! Thanks for sharing!
Taste great
I was going to make this as it says but decided to try using only the ingredients I had on hand. Instead of tomatoes, I used a can of Don Peppino pizza sauce (it’s more like crushed tomatoes), shredded pizza cheese, cooked chorizo sausage (removed from the casing), cooked chopped onion, italian seasoning (hey, it’s got oregano in there) and 2 frozen deep dish pie shells (thawed and inverted one atop the filled one). Turned out pretty damn good. When I get the spare time, I’m going to make it like the recipe says and see which one I like better.
Wow! This looks right up my alley! Pizza is my favorite food ever, I could eat it every night. Can’t wait to try this! Thanks for sharing 😉
Do you have a calorie count for this and other recipes? I kind of like to know how many calories I’m putting in me since I’m trying to lose the 50 lbs. I gained from quitting smoking 10 years ago. I’m down 28 and always like to know how much walking or exercising that I need to do to make up for it. Thanks for any input you can give me on this- This still looks amazing enough for me to cook sometime !!!
