Pastry (bottom crust and top) personally I like the refrigerated unroll type.
16 oz. Ricotta cheese or for a lighter 2% cottage cheese
1/4 pound pepperoni or salami cut in small pieces.
1/4 pound virgin ham also sliced in sm pieces
2 tbsp. grated Parmesan cheese
1 egg, slightly beaten
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
2 hard boiled eggs, sliced
1 egg white
Directions
Mix Ricotta, pepperoni, Parmesan cheese, egg, salt and pepper; spread in pastry lined pie plate. Top with half of the ham, egg slices and then remaining ham in layers.
Cover with top crust, trim overhanging edge of pastry 1 inch from edge of plate and flute edge and decorate. Brush top with egg white. Bake until top is golden brown, at least 30 minutes. Let stand 15 minutes before serving.

Sounds good but how do you know if the ham is a true virgin?

Oh, the variations we could do with this. Different meats, cheeses, herbs. Think I might leave out the cooked eggs though.

This sounds good, but will have to pass due to allergies. Hope the rest of you can enjoy!

It's called Easter pie because it's an Italian traditional baked good made at Easter time

I would have to guess that they meant "Virginia" ham... :-)
