re: old pie recipes.

I have tried to find pie recipes from an older pillsbury cookbook.  One appeared with the Mystery Pecan Pie, (which is woderful).  It is a pumpkin pie made with egg nog, it was wonderful.  The other is older as well. a Deep Dish Pizza pie.  My husband loved it and I would like to make it again.  It had sliced tomatoes on top and a biscuit crust.  Mo5410 Stick out tongue

Re: re: old pie recipes.

Yes Cate,


You are a Godsend!  I know I still have the books, but with my collection plus my mother's,  it would take me forever.  When I first got hurt and was recovering, I found the Mystery Pecan Pie and the Pizza Pie, but that was then and it took me forever to go thru them.  Now I can walk and move around better, I don't have the time to sit and look at them.  I am not new to computers, just the internet.  It has been kind of a No Fly Zone for me.  thank you So much.  MoBig Smile
