    • Reviews

  • “It sounds deceptively simple, but this is a fantastic recipe!It’s so tasty, I could easily eat an entire pie by myself.I usually make two at a time because it gets gobbled up so fast.”

  • “Sandwiching lightly salted tomatoes between paper towels for about ten minutes will help the pie not be too runny.”

  • “I was at my cousins when she was making this pie for dinner (I helped by cutting up the tomatoes) and as I was watching her put it together kept thinking it needed some bacon which she did try.It was really great though I thought it was a bit wet (which is why I only gave it 4 stars) so when I made the recipe, I roasted my tomatoes a bit first and it made all the difference.I also discovered that my pie plates are 12 inch deep dish pie and this recipe would not let me adjust it so I made my own roasted-tomato-pie-434080, which would not have happened without jean1 getting me started.”

  • “I made this last year, following the recipe exactly. My BF loved it so much as soon as I planted tomatoes this year he started asking for it.I made it again last night and used 7 different types of cheese I had on hand.Smoked Gouda was by far the best flavor.I also added 2 slices of chopped bacon at my cousin’t suggestion.Perfection!I will come back to this recipe again and again!”

  • “I used 1 cup of mayo and crumbled 12 slices of bacon into it. Also, I use 1 T. of fresh chopped basil and 1 T. of chives. I’ll try your lightened version next time. Thanks for posting!”

  • “This is quick and easy to make and I thought it would be a good way to use up some tomatoes.It jus didn’t set up for me and was very runny.Rasted good but needs some tweaking.”

  • “It just did not appeal to us. It sounded great, but tasted funny.”

  • “I made this as part of a vegetarian dinner, with slow cooked vegetable casserole and Byron potatoes. It turned out to be an absolutely delicious and savoury recipe.And very easy, too.Thank you Jean1!”

  • “I rate this pie 5 stars.My granddaughter and grandson love it.And they are very picky eaters.”
