Tomato Pie | Use up those extra Tomatoes!

Lots of Tomatoes, Basil, and Cheese in this Savory Summer Pie
To help prevent a soggy bottom on your Tomato Pie...
1- Salt the tomato slices and let sit in a Colander for 45 minutes to drain excess moisture. Then lay out on paper towels for a few more minutes to absorb more of the liquid.
2- Select a meaty variety of Tomato, like a plum tomato
3- Sprinkle a little bit of shredded cheese on the crust or spread a layer of Pimento Cheese on the crust
Tomato Pie Ingredients:
1 9-inch Deep Dish Pie Crust
4-5 Plump Ripe Tomatoes
1 Tsp Salt
1/2 Cup Fresh Basil Chiffonade, or 1 1/2 TBSP Dried Basil
1/2 Vidalia Onion, chopped
1 Large Clove Garlic, chopped
8 slices Swiss or Gruyere Cheese or some Shredded Mozzarella Cheese
Pepper to Taste
Tomato Pie Topping: *can use Pimento Cheese Spread for the Topping
1 Cup Mayonnaise
8 ounces shredded Cheddar Cheese
1 slightly beaten large Egg

1/2 Cup Grated Parmesan Cheese

Hi Gail you've made a very tasty and gorgeous pie
I love all the ingredients you used. One slice for me please, and thank you!
Great baking as always sis, this is the first time I saw a tomato and cheese pie It is unique.
I will try it one day. Thanks for sharing! Blessings to make more delicious pies !❤😇❤

Thank you Tracie! Tomato, Basil, and Cheese...it's like a Pizza Pie! The challenge with Tomato Pies is preventing the crust from getting soggy...I brushed my crust with mayonnaise, but I think spreading cheese in the bottom is better...in case you get a chance to make one! One more summer pie coming this week! Blessings to you today!

@@gailskitchenYes oh yum!
Thanks for the advice.
I will make it.
You add great flavour to it.
It's an art and great technique to get it right without being soggy.
I am excited to see the other pie cooming soon.
Thanks for responding sis!❤

Hi, that looks so good and the tomatoes here in NJ now are perfect for this.Thanks for sharing, Dolores ❤️

[@gailskitchen]

Thank you Delores! We wait 10 months out of the year for that first juicy ripe home-grown tomato...Then we have a surplus! Hope you get to try this. See you soon.

You have some beautiful tomatoes. My tomatoes are still green in the garden.
I was late planting them.
Hopefully I can get some before our season changes.
This is a great way to use the tomatoes.
A great meal in a pie. The pie has a beautiful colour.
Also I love the pie rings.
Have a blessed weekend sis!❤🌹

I was also late getting my tomatoes planted this year and I still have a lot of green tomatoes too! I may do a Fried Green Tomato video! So much to do.💗

There have been weeks this summer where I probably ate (on average) a tomato a day just sliced with salt and pepper. This is an awesome way to use some up! Love this!

[@gailskitchen]

I also prefer to eat fresh tomatoes just sliced with salt and pepper! But the Tomato Pie was a good reason for a video ; ) Thanks Eric 💗
