About

This pie is so easy and delicious, you will be making it again and again.  It freezes really well too, so this could become a staple in your make ahead meal planning.  I used vine ripened tomatoes, and think that Roma would be another good variety.  Baking the pie crust first prevents a soggy pie crust bottom as well.  
I made the pie last weekend, and it was amazing! Do you love the fancy ribbon effect on my pie crust?  Well you can learn to do that too, check out my pie baking online courses at udemy.com.
