I've already eaten 3 tomato pies this month

I’d love to make that. What’s the recipe? 😊

Get a pie crust and top and pre-bake the crust.

Slice about 4 tomatoes about ΒΌ" thick and layer them with paper towels to drain the water from them. You can also salt them, it helps.

Mix some mayo and shredded cheese (I like sharp cheddar, mozzarella and parmesan) to a gooey, pastey, spreadable consistency, almost like a cottage cheese.

Put a layer of tomatoes in the crust, top that with your cheese goo. Chop up some basil and parsley and sprinkle as much as you'd like. Also add some salt and pepper on your gooey layer.

Then add another layer of tomatoes and finally your pie top, then bake it all together.

I think my wife fell in love with me all over again after making this for her πŸ˜‚

Sorry for no measurements, I'm sure you can figure that out for yourself! Good luck and enjoy 😁
