How To Make tomato herb pie
-
Step 1Preheat 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.
-
Step 2Slice 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.
-
Step 3Mix the cheese and mayo; set aside.
-
Step 4Saute the onions until tender on medium heat.
-
Step 5Once the crust has cooled, put a layer of tomatoes in the pie crust. Next sprinkle onions, herbs, and pepper. Repeat 2 more times.
-
Step 6Drop the cheese and mayo layer on top. 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.
