Notes
I like to cover a sheet pan with aluminum foil and place the pie pan on top so that if anything boils over it won't be a mess in your oven.
We like sharp cheddar cheese here, but you can use your favorite shredded cheese for the recipe.
For the pie crust, you can use a homemade pie crust, refrigerated pie crust, or frozen.
