Tomato pie

Using roasted tomatoes: a savory pie, southern style.

Step 1 Pre-bake pie crust

You can make your own pie crust, but since this is a low-effort endeavor I recommend just pulling one out of the freezer.

Bake the pie crust at 350F until lightly browned, about 10 minutes. Remove and allow to cool.

You may notice that the veggies are not all squishy with the short cooking time - which I happen to LOVE! It also is great to microwave the left overs. The crust does stay crusty!!!

that might be nice with some boiled shrimp mixed in too. Looks wonderful, what a nice new take on tomatoes.

Right now I have my version of this baking - I absolutely LOVE it. For those who are not offended, chopped precooked bacon can be mixed in to the cheese/mayo mix. I haven't tried it w/ the sun-dried tomatoes, but I shall do that in the near future. I find that the juice isn't too much of an issue if you start w/ a thick layer of onions next to the prebaked crust. Thank you for posting this - and if you don't mind, I will take a photo of the one I have baking right now and post it here!

My friend's mother used to make tomato pies for our grad association, and they were the best pies I'd ever tasted until this recipe came along. Roasting the tomatoes DOES make all the difference. I am vegan (wasn't in grad school), and I modified the recipe by using homemade soy mayo and Galaxy Nutritionals' Rice Cheese, mozzarella flavored. While mixing the cheese and mayo looks gross at first, it ensures an even spread and results in a beautiful topping.

This was a really, really delicious recipe. We always have an excess of tomatoes from the garden around this time of year, so this is great for me. I'll be making it again soon. My only problem was that there was a lot of liquid in the pie when I cut it, and the pieces fell apart, but I think this is probably because I only let it cool for a few minutes before cutting it. Nice!
