Pre-made crusts, 8oz Ricotta cheese, 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1 cup Parmesan cheese, 3 eggs, garlic/herb seasoning, bunch of asparagus - chopped, about 3 big handfuls of spinach (sauteéd and drained well), bunch of radishes (if you have never tried cooked radishes - they are GOOD! if not, use grape tomatoes cut in half), 1½ cups chopped ham (or cooked chicken, or cooked beef .....), your favorite hot sauce (mine is Frank's Red Hot mixed with a cube of melted butter per jar)....

Mix the eggs, cheeses, yogurt, seasonings, in mixer. Fold in the asparagus, radishes, spinach, and ham. Put top crust on and then drizzle with hot sauce. Make vent cuts in top crust. Bake 350º about 1 hr 15 min (or until brown on top). Let sit 15 minutes before cutting. YUMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!

April 15th

Patriots Day

Some people know little or nothing about Patriot's Day. To New Englander's, it is a big, big day. In the states in New England, it's a holiday with a day off of work. Banks, schools, post offices, and businesses have the day off. Patriot's Day commemorates the Battle of Lexington and Concord on April 19, 1775. This battle began the American Revolutionary War. It also honors the "Midnight Ride of Paul Revere", that evening when Paul Revere rode through town warning the colonists that "The Red Coats are coming!"


....and it's also National Glazed Spiral Cut Ham Day! (That is the kind of ham I used in the pie!)
