There are many different variations throughout Italy, the one I grew up with is southern Italian and is shaped like a calzone. We make these only at Easter

Pizza Rustica isn't really a pizza; it's actually a meat-laden quiche made for Easter. According to the legends passed down from my Abbruzese family, it was a way to use up all the eggs and meats that were hoarded away for Lent. In my family, we called it "Easter Pie."
