Mamma Mia! Pie Five Pizza Unveils Another Delicioso Masterpiece – The Meatball Ricotta Pie

Mamma Mia! Pie Five Pizza Unveils Another Delicioso Masterpiece – The Meatball Ricotta Pie When the time came to create his latest limited-time sensation, Pie Five Pizza Chef Andy Wittman turned to a true Renaissance man – his beloved and slightly cantankerous great-uncle Luigi.

Luigi, you see, is a true Italian, with tomato sauce coursing through his veins. So when Andy and Uncle Luigi decided to collaborate, the results were molto buona!

Today, Pie Five introduces their Meatball Ricotta Pie, a masterful combination of smoked provolone and mozzarella blend, zesty, all-natural and organic marinara sauce, topped with hand-pinched ricotta cheese and authentic Italian style meatballs and fresh, hand-cut red and green peppers. It’s the perfect blend of authentic Italian fixings that would make the Godfather himself beg for seconds.

“My Uncle Luigi is a legend in the motherland, as much for his colorful language as his classic family recipes. But when it comes to cooking, he’s a gastronomic genius,” said Wittman. “Our new Meatball Ricotta Pie is a gift of culinary amore, from our family to yours, steeped in rich Italian heritage and crafted specialmente for Pie Five’s guests.”

This is the first time the rapidly growing fast-casual pizza chain has introduced this new take on an Italian tradition, and Wittman said he expects it to become an instant favorite. But all good things must come to an end, capisce? This limited time offering is available at all Pie Five restaurants nationwide only until Oct. 12
