Tomato Pie

Here is a recipe I had been wanting to make for a while, I just could not imagine what tomato pie would taste like. So I used some of my great tomatoes I got from the Amish and made the pie yesterday. I am not a big tomato lover so I was actually pleasantly surprised with the pie. It would make a great lunch dish with a pretty salad on the side. I would only make it when you could get really good tomatoes, those awful cardboard tasting things they sell in the winter would not do.

You can make a crust or use a frozen one, it’s up to you. I think it would be interesting to chop up some fresh herbs into the crust and will try that next time. I also think this would be good made on a cookie sheet and cut into tiny squares as an appetizer. To peel the tomatoes immerse them in boiling water for 30 – 45 seconds. The skins will slip right off using a paring knife. After I made this recipe I saw one that called for drizzling olive oil over the tomatoes instead of using the mayonnaise, I am going to try that next time.
