Zesty Tomato Pie can be served warm or cold, as an appetizer, side dish or main course. Creamy cheese, basil and fresh tomatoes packed in a flaky pie crust. Topped with a shot of lemon zest!
Happy Pi(e) Day!
I’m a fan of all kinds of pies from sweet to savory.
Fruit pies, meat pies, veggie pies, hand pies, you name it. I’m in!
For 2019 #PiDay I went with a semi-traditional tomato pie. Creamy, cheesy and just plain good!
