Gluten Free Tomato Basil Pie, delicious for breakfast, lunch or supper.
Gluten free tomato basil pie is a summer treat
Fresh tomatoes and fresh basil make this Gluten Free Tomato Basil Pie absolutely mouth-watering. I think I need to make some right now. It's a delightful, light entree for brunch, lunch or supper. This is a layered pie that is simple to make. There's no need to pre-bake the crust. Start by sautéing the onion, and then you simply layer the ingredients and bake!
Use Gluten Free or Traditional Pie Crust
You can, of course, use a traditional pie crust for this pie, but then it won't be gluten free. This Tomato Basil Pie is especially good in the summertime, but with tomatoes available year around in the U.S., we don't have to be stymied by a lack of available fruits. Of course, the tomatoes that you get in the supermarket don't have as much flavor as a good homegrown tomato. But you can generally get excellent Roma or Grape Tomatoes year round, so use those when tomatoes are out of season. Roma tomatoes are good because they are a firm tomato that doesn't have as much juice, so they are terrific for cooking.
What You Need
You'll need a good knife, a cutting board, measuring cups and spoons, a saute pan, a pie plate, and a cheese shredder. But what you really want is some fabulous dinnerware and stemware to serve your pie to your family and guests. Am I right?
