Sounds intriguing, but how do you make a 16" pie?

Also, You still need to heat up the broiler, to get an evenly cooked
product; right?

Might as well just stick it in the oven.

If you really want it easy, buy some Pita loaves, toast them for a
minute in an oven, add sauce and toppings and back into the oven until
cheese melts. I use this for the kids when I'm burdened with paperwork,
and the wife is not home : )
