Easy blind baking

When pre-baking a pie shell, instead of lining the unbaked pie with pie weights, beans or rice (which can often make a mess) I just line the unbaked pie shell with tin foil and then nest another pie plate of the same size inside and bake for the desired time. Perfect pie shells every time!
