Cheddar cheese crust
2 cups all-purpose flour

Divide pastry in halves and roll out one half to fit 9-inch pie pan. Roll second half of pastry and cut into 10 (½-inch) strips. Spoon filling into pastry-lined pan. Weave pastry strips across filling to make lattice top. Bake at 375℉ (190℃) 30 to 45 minutes, or until done. Serve warm.
