salt & pepper

Combine filling ingredients.

Roll each dough ball to fit a 10 x 8 pan.

Place one crust in pan, covering bottom and sides.

Refrigerate after it cools.

NOTES

  • My mother use to always place a piece of Palm in the middle before she baked it. I do that too if I make it after Palm Sunday. – Kathy
