Introduction: Personal Pizza Pot Pie

About: I have had a few careers so far, soldier, school teacher, arborist, millwright. I love change and I love learning.
I always try to make food different and fun for my kids.  Today I came up with the personal pizza pot pie.  It takes about a half hour from start to finish and the kids can help.

Step 1: The Bottom

I bought 3 pot pie disposable pans for $2.  Rub some butter or margarine into the pan.  Roll out the dough on a floured surface and drop it into the pan.  Give it a bit of pizza sauce and spread it around .  Lay in some cheese and we have the bottom done!

Step 2: The Middle

My kids like Hawaiian pizza so so placed in a ring of pineapple, a slice of ham ripped up, then another layer of pineapple and ham, then more cheese.  Feel free to mix it up and put whatever ingredients you want into it.  I added sausage, mushrooms and onion to mine.

Step 3: The Top

Roll out another piece of dough and place it on top like a pie shell lid.  Pinch the lid and the base together around the pan.  Then I take the flat of a knife and rub it against the edge of the pan to sever off the extra dough.  Poke a few holes in it with a knife to allow steam to escape and then put a layer of sauce and a layer of cheese on it.

Step 4: The Cooking

I preheat the over to 350 degrees.  I have no idea how long it takes to cook.  I just keep impatiently opening the oven door to look at it and I know it is done when the crust around the edges is starting to go a nice golden brown.  By cooking it at this low temperature the heat has time to get inside to melt the cheese.

Enjoy!
