Directions

  1. Preheat an oven to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C).

  2. Roll out dough to fit a 9-inch pie plate.

  3. Place ground pork, rosemary, bread crumbs, parsley, and onion in a medium-size bowl, mix until well blended. Remove casings from sausage, and crumble into the mixture. Season with salt and pepper.

  4. Sprinkle 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese into the bottom of pie shell. Spread pork mixture on top of cheese, and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan. Place top crust over filling, and crimp the edges together. Cut vents in top crust.
