Serving Times You can bake this pie up to 24 hours ahead. Serve
warm or cold with a hearty soup. |
Money Savers Juicy tomatoes are
delicious to eat in salads, but they have to much liquid for pies. To
remove extra liquid, slice tomatoes into a plate. Sprinkle with 2
teaspoons salt. Let drain for 30 minutes and pat dry. |
Serving Variation
For a Tex-Mex treat, substitute 2 teaspoons ground cumin
and 1 teaspoon Mexican oregano for the dried basil. |
