Cooking with Kimme: Green Tomato Pie

What a wonderful spin on some our summer favorites – Green Tomato Pie!! This is a simple assembly that packs a punch as a light main meal or accompanied as a side dish. Stack the layers high in your pie shell, it will cook down to the perfect pie! Enjoy them while they are GREEN!

2 refrigerated/prepared pie shells
3-4 large green tomatoes
2 onions (preferably Vidalia)
1 Cup grated cheese (sharp cheddar is best but any will do!)
1/2 stick butter
Salt & pepper
Preheat oven 350 degrees.
Place one pie shell in your round pie dish.
Slice and layer green tomato, onion rings, butter pats and cheese – stack 2-3 layers of this! Salt & pepper each layer.
Place the other pie shell on top, crimp edges and poke vent holes in top.
Bake 1 hour or until golden on top.
Doesn’t get much simpler than that 🙂
