So I have to make a pie for Monday for the team. This is loosely related to some tenuous puns on pi or pie charts or p.i.e. acronyms.

I've cooked cakes before. Or is that baked. Right see the problem? Most of my cooking involves throwing things into a pot, a pan, or on a BBQ. Not much involves in actually following a recipe or really having a clue as to what I am doing.

None the less I need to make a pie for the office. It can be sweet or savoury (I'm thinking savoury), but has to be a pie not a tart. I could probably get away with a quiche. Bear in mind this is for 10:30am so steak and ale pie is probably a bad option. Also it should ideally be edible and not kill anyone.

Any ideas? Any favourite pie recipes?
