Notes
- You can prepare the pie in advance and refrigerate it; add 10-15 minutes to baking time if baking from cold.
- For freezing, omit the mozzarella topping; bake from frozen adding 30-45 minutes to baking time and add mozzarella after initial baking.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for 3-4 days; reheat in the microwave for convenience.
- Allow the pie to sit for 5-10 minutes after baking to set before cutting to avoid crumbling.
- Removing from the fridge while the oven preheats helps ensure more even baking.
