Fresh Tomato Pie

I made 2 of these today, regular pie shells, not deep dish. Same amount of filling doubled the topping twice! Yummy!!

Made this tonight. Maybe I missed it, but I didn’t see the step to add the herbs, so I put them on top of the pie before baking and it was delicious. I still got a soggy bottom, even with egg white washing the bottom of the pie and pre baking before making the recipe. Nice flavors, pretty presentation. I also added crumbled bacon on top of the tomatoes and sautéed the onion in the bacon grease before putting into the pie.

What can I say? YUM!! Had to sub out cheese for pepper jack. Did a layer of tomatoes then topped with cheese/mayo mix then added another layer of tomatoes and topped with last bit of cheese/mayo mix. Salt, pepper and some Italian seasoning (also didn’t have fresh basil.

This is delicious! What a great way to use up excess tomatoes during growing season. I cooked it as the recipe stated with only 2 modifications. I used half of the mayo and substituted the other half with sour cream (we’re huge sour cream fans) and I sprinkled the top with a little extra Parmesan. I cooked as directed, then put it under the broiler for a couple of minutes to brown up the cheese. This was a huge hit and I will definitely make it again.

Very good. I split it between two pie crusts since my crust shrank when pre-baking, I used a can of biscuits for the second pie. To support the two, I used the same amount of mayonnaise but a little more cheese (a spicy cheddar mixed with parmesan). I was low on Oregano and substituted some Herbs de Provence. I added more pepper after it cooked. It was well received.

Too rich for me, but my husband liked it, so I’ll give it 3 stars. I was excited to try this because it called for 7 tomatoes, and I had lots of ripe ones. But with tomatoes in a single layer, it only used 2.

Everything has to be FRESH or you’re doing it wrong.

Drain tomatoes while pie crust is baking.

I took suggestions from others and drained my tomatoes first and added a bit of cheese and bread crumbs on the bottom of pie shell to prevent a soggy bottom. It worked perfectly. I also made the topping with half mayo half sour cream. I am at the end of tomato season but will try to make it one more time before my Basil fades.

What a perfect way to use garden fresh summer tomatoes. This recipe goes together fast and uses basic pantry supplies. I did add 2 extra steps which didn’t change the taste or basic recipe. About 2 hours before baking I sliced and lightly salted the tomatoes and left them to drain to help cut back on sogginess. I also gave the pie shell an egg wash before baking to help protect it from the juices and keep it a bit more crispy. This recipe would be easy to change up by adding chopped cooked bacon or changing the type of cheese used as well. It’s a great recipe overall!

This is a Delicious pie!! It is a great starter recipe, like others I added pesto, extra cheese and fried the onion and garlic in bacon grease. You can’t go wrong with this recipe.

I will make again! Did not use Oregeno garish only Basel. Added bacon crumbles on top of tomatoes before Mayo topping! Delicious!!!

This pie is delicious. Used recipe exactly as written. Came out great!

I had never heard of this until a friend suggested it as a way to use up extra summer tomato’s. All I can say is WOW! Absolutely delicious and it got rave reviews from everyone. Only modifications I made based off of reviews was that I sautéed the onions prior to adding them in. Also I sprinkled a little bread crumbs to the bottom of the pie crust to help with the moisture. Try this….no clue how you could be disappointed.

Delicious! Definitely want to use fresh garden tomatoes and basil. I sprinkled some salt and Italian seasoning over the tomatoes, and used more mozzarella/mayonnaise mix to completely cover the tomatoes. So yummy! We couldn’t stop eating it!

I won’t make this again. It tasted like mayo and tomatoes. That said, I’ve never made tomato pie, and maybe it’s supposed to??

My menfolk love it. I was thinking of using green tomatoes next time, but my youngest says “why waste good frying tomatoes” Then he ate it the first time and said this would be good with green tomatoes! Go figure.

The crust was soggy and the onions were undercooked. I was disappointed.

Made this according to the directions but dud nor turn out very well. Crust was soggy and onions were still raw. Think would be better if onions were chopped instead of sliced. And maybe use mozzarella cheese and cheddar instead of the parmesan. I didnt think it tasted very good. Have another recipe going to try. Had a tomato pie at church gathering and it was nothing like this one and was very good. I was disappointed with this one

Will definitely make this again. Loved it!

The husband said this recipe is a keeper. Actually, he said I’d like to have this again soon. Easy and fairly quick to prepare. I added bacon and will add it next time between layers. I used a whole pack of mozzarella cheese – I think it was 2 cups. 3/4 c is just not enough. I layered tomatoes, topping, tomatoes, topping. Very yummy!
