tomato pie *really is* smack your granny good

schmamy · 07-20-2010, 11:03 AM

that is all. I'm just so enamored with it, after eating another leftover piece for lunch, that I had to say that to someone. just don't tell my granny

I'm this close to going back to the fridge and eating the last remaining piece. somebody stop me.

Never even heard of it. Is it all tomato in a pie crust?

schmamy · 07-20-2010, 11:05 AM

tomato, Vidalia onions, a little bacon, a lot of cheese, and a touch of mayo.

I mean, with an ingredient list like that, could you really go wrong?

Niphredil · 07-20-2010, 11:08 AM

Don't go back for that last piece. Send it here.

I need more specifics. It sounds more like a salad. Do you cook it? Is it in a crust?

schmamy · 07-20-2010, 11:18 AM

it's in a crust, just like a regular pie. pics and (link to original) recipe here:

http://schmamy.blogspot.com/2009/08/...oh-my-yum.html

I just discovered it last summer and it's only worth making with fresh, local, deep red summer tomatoes. so this is only like the 2nd or 3rd one I've made, ever. but oh am I making it again soon, even if it is a bit of a pain (if you make your own crust).

sounds amazing.

I have a feeling roasted garlic and spinach would somehow sneak into mine- when I make it!

I have never heard of tomato pie or the phrase, "smack your granny, good..."

Looks yummy though. Thanks for the chuckle too.

I had never heard "smack your granny good" either

- I think maybe it's a Southern expression? the first I heard it was in the title of the original tomato pie recipe...and so I always think of it/associate it with this pie.

gerberadaisy · 07-20-2010, 05:07 PM

have to say, it SOUNDS good in theory...but highly doubt I'd like it. My husband, otoh, would probably gobble it down. Since we grow maters, I may have to try this once we start getting more ripe one's.

The tomato pic I'm familiar with (which I also do not like) is more like a pizza without the cheese so that's what I was thinking. However, with the bacon in your pie, I might just have to try a slice!

Naked Camper · 07-20-2010, 05:10 PM

that sounds amazing!!

schmamy · 07-20-2010, 05:11 PM

don't get too attached to the idea of bacon...it really isn't very noticeable (though it would probably be good if you used more). the tomatoes really are the stars of the show...which is why I only make it in the summer.

StumblinMama · 07-20-2010, 05:11 PM

The only tomato pie I've ever seen has eggs--more like a quiche. I'm not a big lover of eggs, so this is perfect

Sounds delish, and I LOVE the expression!

Too bad I'm the only one in my house who will eat "mundadoes" (as DD calls them)...
