Refrigerator Pie
Recipe courtesy Alton Brown

Ingredients
1 cup heavy cream or half-and-half
2 eggs
2 pinches kosher salt
Freshly grated nutmeg

For 1 Refrigerator Pie:
1 frozen 9-inch pie crust

Any one of the following combinations:
Cooked spinach, cheddar cheese, cubed cooked ham
Bacon, Sauteed leeks, and Gruyere cheese
Cooked spinach, canned artichoke hearts, and Parmesan cheese
Roasted chicken, goat cheese, and sun-dried tomatoes
Blanched asparagus and smoked salmon
Port Salut and Spam

Directions
In a nonreactive, stainless steel bowl, combine the cream or
half-and-half and the eggs. Whisk until combined thoroughly. Add the salt and the nutmeg. Whisk
to combine.

Refrigerator Pie Rules: Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Evenly distribute the pie fillings in the pie
crust. Do not overfill the crust with the filling ingredients. Do not pour too much royale into the
crust. The eggs will expand upon cooking. Bake the pie until it is firm to the touch like set
Jell-O, about 45 minutes. Cool the pie for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
