Tomato Pie

I've never been a big fan of tomatos. I love the smell of the tomato plant, but have always been slightly nauseated by the smell of the actual tomato. However, I do love salsa. My wife has slowly found more and more meals with tomatos that I will eat. They are actually starting to grow on me, but just a little! A friend passed along this recipe and I admit I was hesitant to try it, but I'm glad I did. It is incredible and too good not to share. Thanks Fiona!



We planted a lot of tomatos in the garden this year and have been enjoying this fantastic dish with fresh picked tomatos. I hope you will enjoy it too!


Ingredients:
1 frozen pie crust
3 - 5 medium sized tomatos, peeled and sliced
1/2 cup mayo (my wife swears by kraft)
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
3 tbsp fresh basil (we just diced up a small handful)
1 cup chopped green onions (can use red or sweet)
1 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Bake pie crust at 425 for about 10 minutes or until golden brown. Spread sliced tomatos on bottom of baked crust. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Mix remaining ingredients together and pour over tomatos. Bake at 325 for 45 minutes. Enjoy!
