"This is not a terribly cheap recipe or a terribly healthy one so it seems a bit out of character for me! But it was created when I needed something for dinner immediately and this is what I had on hand. The kids loved it!"

Do you mean pie crust as in a crust for a pie, or as in a whole pizza crust? Because you've referred to it as both a pie crust and a pizza crust.

These were very good. I filled them with pepperoni instead of chicken. It was easy and fast to make and that's always great!

These are really good! actually they are like calzone, only these are made with a pie crust. I did increase the chicken, and used more than 2 cups mozza cheese. thanks ladypit, my DS enjoyed these!...Kitten:)
