I made this with fresh tomatoes and herbs. This pie can be eaten hot, room temperature or cold. It is good as an entree served with a salad. It is so good, try it and put a smile on your face.

Grab extra tomatoes at the market and add this recipe to your menu! The combination of herbs, along with the sauteed onions and tomatoes make one fabulous meal. Serve it with a side salad and you have an easy dinner! I really enjoyed the basil in this pie... it packed the perfect flavor punch. The Test Kitchen

How to Make Tomato Herb Pie

Step-by-Step

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Put the unbaked pie crust in a 9 inch pie pan. When the oven is preheated, bake for 10 mins.
Slice the tomatoes thin and put them on a cooling rack over the sink, Salt and let stand for 15 mins to drain some of the juice.
Mix the cheese and mayo, set aside.
Saute the onions until tender on medium heat.
Put a layer of tomatoes in the pie crust once it has cooled, next sprinkle onions, herbs and pepper. Repeat 2 more times.

The final layer is the cheese and mayo mixture.
Bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 mins. Halfway through, spread the mayo and cheese evenly, it is easier once it is heated.

When done, allow to cool on a cooling rack.
