My family has been enjoying this delightful crustless tomato pie recipe for years. It’s quick and easy to prepare and perfect for serving at any meal – whether it’s brunch, lunch, or dinner. With the fresh herbs and mozzarella cheese, this recipe has a delicious Italian flair that will bring everyone together. You simply must try it!

INGREDIENTS:

• 2 beaten eggs
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 4 sliced tomatoes
• 1 minced clove of garlic
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
• 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese, plus extra for sprinkling over top
• 6-7 chopped basil leaves
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1-2 teaspoons salt

DIRECTIONS:

Step 1: Place the sliced tomatoes on plates and lightly sprinkle them with salt. Let them sit for at least 10 to 30 minutes.

Step 2: Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and cook for about 8 minutes, stirring often, until the onions have softened. Transfer the onion/garlic mixture to a medium-sized bowl. Add the cheese, eggs, herbs, and pepper. Mix well.

Step 3: Drain the water from the plates with the tomatoes. Gently blot the tomatoes with a paper towel to remove any excess moisture.

Step 4: Arrange the tomato slices in a single layer on a greased pie pan. Top with around 1/4 cup of the cheese mixture. Repeat the layers with the remaining tomato slices and cheese mixture, ending with a layer of tomatoes. Sprinkle the final layer with mozzarella cheese.

Step 5: Bake the pie for about 30 to 40 minutes at 375 degrees or until the edges are lightly browned. Remove from the oven and let the pie sit for about 5 to 7 minutes.

Step 6: Serve and enjoy!
