When we moved to Marshall, I didn't know anyone apart from my brother-in-law and sister-in-law and some of her family. It was such a pleasant surprise when this blonde chick just popped up in my house one evening while I'm just laid up on the couch Facebooking and watching Trash TV (Justin's name for the Bravo channel). She had come over with her then boyfriend (now fiance!) because the fellas had to do some work talk...I sure didn't know she was coming along or I would have at least tried to pretend to be doing something, ya know, like laundry, cooking, cleaning, etc....but nooooo, she caught me in unmatching lounge clothes, with my hair all a mess, watching Real Housewives and being nosey on Facebook. But the good thing is, we hit it off and have been friends ever since. We share a love for cooking and trying new recipes. When she invited me over for dinner the other night and told me she was making Tomato Pies, I did not have the heart to tell her that I'm not a big tomato fan....so I just played along and reluctantly took my first bite...to my amazement, it was DELICIOUS! So all you non-tomato lovers, please try this recipe! You may be as surprised as I was and you may learn a way to get this very nutritious, vitamin-filled food into your diet! Here ya go!
You will need:
- Mayo
- Shredded Colby Jack cheese
- Salad Supreme seasoning
- Italian Seasoning
- Fresh Parmesan cheese
- Cheap canned biscuits (not the Grands...just those little ones that were the only thing available when we were kids)
- Butter
- Tomatoes, sliced about 1/2 inch thick
Mix 1 cup of mayo with 1 cup of Colby Jack cheese in a mixing bowl. .Take each biscuit and smash it, but don't go crazy smashing....just smash like once or twice (does that make sense?) Brush melted butter on each biscuit. Sprinkle Italian seasoning on each biscuit. Add the tomato slice to each. Sprinkle with Salad Supreme. Top each tomato with 1 tablespoon of the mayo/cheese mixture. Top with parmesan cheese. Sprinkle with more Salad Supreme. Bake at 375 for 20-25 minutes.
