Here is my receipe for the easter pizza rustica that i posted on fb.. it is easy just needs prep. put together and 
. than enjoy hot. or cold or microwaved warm..
crust
two cups of flour makes enough crust for one pie.
4 tbs spoons butter or margarine. i mix it
2 tsp baking powder
spinkle with salt
2 tbs sugar
2 eggs
i mix this in a food processor and it will be dry. than i put a tbls of water and mix.. if still dry add more water.
than mix until dough pulls away from the bowl.. mix on a board for a few turns with flour than let rest covered.
for the filling
1 1/2 pound of ricotta cheese
1/4 pound of salami
1/4 pound of procuitto
1/2 pound of mozzorella
4 large eggs
lots of pepper
and salt not alot especially since the procuitto is salty
i also add sugar because it counteracts the salt nicely
cut the meats at the deli a little thicker than you would want for a sandwich say double thickness
and than cut into cube shapes.
mix all of this together. and let sit.. i make it hours before and keep in the fridge. seems to allow flavors to combine.
roll out 1/2 the dough for bottom crust that i put into a greased and floured
pan
put the filling in and than top with top crust. roll edges and crimp to seal with a fork and put into the top air holes so the crust does not bubble
at 360 degree oven until top crust sounds hollow when tapped.
than brush the top with beaten egg and sprinkle with colored sprinkes continue baking until nice and shiney perhaps another 15 minutes. total baking time should be over an hour ..
