So many of you asked for the Tomato Pie recipe I had to try to find something close to what I made. The problem these days is that when I cook, I google mutliple recipes and mix and match according to what I have on hand and what suits me. This Tomato Pie with corn sounded great but I didn't want an upper crust and I'd eaten the last of my silver queen corn the night before. I will make the version with corn some day. Other than that it is very close to what I made. I combined ingredients from this one and Paula Dean's version.
Tomato Pie
1 9-inch deep dish frozen pie shell
3/4 cup grated mozzarella
3/4 cup grated cheddar
1/2 cup chopped green onion
10 fresh basil leaves, chopped
3 - 4 large tomatoes, peeled and sliced in 1/4' slices
1/2 cup Hellman's mayonnaise
salt and pepper
3/4 cup grated mozzarella
3/4 cup grated cheddar
1/2 cup chopped green onion
10 fresh basil leaves, chopped
3 - 4 large tomatoes, peeled and sliced in 1/4' slices
1/2 cup Hellman's mayonnaise
salt and pepper
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. First, blanch the tomatoes to peel and slice. Place the tomatoes in a colander or lay out to drain. Sprinkle a layer of cheese in the bottom of the pie shell, then a layer of tomato slices, salt & pepper, basil, onion and spread mayonnaise and repeat until tomatoes are used. Spread the mayonnaise and cheese mixture on top of the tomatoes and bake for 40 minutes or until lightly browned. I think I had three layers of tomatoes.
To serve, cut into slices and serve warm. Prepare to be adored.

Love the blue and LOVE that table. And the chairs!
Thank you! The blue makes me happy.
I ordered four of the chairs. They have been coming one at a time about a week apart. Aaaargh.
I had never heard of tomato pie until I read about it in a Dorothea Benton Frank book just yesterday.
Proofs my theory about going through your whole life without ever having heard of something, and then you hear about it twice in the same week!
....and the recipe for said pie?........ please????
Tomato pie? That's a new one on me, too. But I like tomatoes, and I like pie...so why not? :)
