I've posted this one before but it's SO easy and people seem to love it. The recipe comes from a little lunch spot in my home town of Kings Mountain NC called the Cup & Saucer Tea Room.
Tomato Pie 3 tomatoes, sliced to cover the bottom of pie shell. Sprinkle desired amount of chopped basil over tomatoes Chopped green onions to taste, I like about 4 small ones. 9 inch deep dish pie shell 1 cup cheddar, grated 1 cup mozzarella, grated 1 cup mayo salt & pepper to taste Pre-heat oven to 350 Layer tomatoes, basil and onion in pie shell. S/P to taste Mix cheese and mayo Spread on top and bake until top is golden brown *if your toatoes are real juicy, pat them dry with a paper towel before putting in pie shell. I think I just gained 5 pounds writing this.Thats why I like to have it for brunch and skip breakfast. Theresa |

This is a little work but one of my favorites.
For any recipes that call for the sun-dried tomatoes to be reconstituted: Soak amount tomatoes required in hot water just to cover for 30 minutes. Drain and pat dry with paper towel. SLice or dice Tuscan Chicken Bruschetta - Sun Dried Tomato National Contest Winner 2 cups mixed pizza cheese(Mozzarella, Provolone, Stevia, etc) Combine all items above in a mixing bowl.![]() 2 oz diced green onions 6 oz Julienne Sun Dried Tomatoes in oil 4 oz sliced sautéed shiitake mushrooms 5 oz Julienne grilled chicken breast 3 oz mayonnaise 4 oz pesto(in jar fine) 1 each baguette (or loaf French Bread) 4 oz diced fresh Roma tomatoes 2 oz balsamic glaze (see recipe below) 1 oz basil, chiffonade (see below) Cut baguette in half lengthwise. Spread pesto on baguette Spread cheese mixture over pesto and bake in 350 degree oven for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. Cut, plate, top with diced tomatoes, chiffonade of basil, and balsamic glaze. Balsamic Vinegar Glaze 1 cup Balsamic vinegar 1 cup Water 1/4 cup Brown sugar Add all ingredients to a small sauce pan and slowly simmer until it reaches the thickness of a glaze. Stir frequently to keep from burning Chiffonade Chiffonading, besides sounding strange in verb form, is a simple technique you may halready know. I find it a very handy for basil, but it can be used for any leafy thing large enough to roll. Leaves can be difficult to cut on their own, but when you stack them your knife actually has something to sink its teeth into. The end result proves that your hands are cooler than any food processor around. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I just made this for a luncheon last week and it was a real hit. Little time consuming but I made it the day before so only had to pop into oven.
Rustic Beefsteak Tomato Tart From Finecooking.com Ruth Lively ![]() This freeform tomato tart makes a great appetizer, lunch, or light supper. Use the best-tasting, locally grown paste tomatoes you can lay hands on.Serves eight to ten. For the crust: 9 oz. (2 cups) unbleached all-purpose flour 1/4 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (about 1/2 oz.) 1 Tbs. chopped fresh thyme 1/4 tsp. table salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 1/8 tsp. ground cayenne 5-1/2 oz. (11 Tbs.) cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes 5 to 6 Tbs. ice water For the filling: 1-1/2 lb. ripe paste-type tomatoes (low moisture) Kosher salt 1-1/2 cups freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano (about 3 oz.) 4 Tbs. roughly chopped pitted oil-cured black olives or Kalamata olives 12 large basil leaves, thinly sliced 2 tsp. capers, drained and patted dry, roughly chopped if large Freshly ground black pepper 2 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil Prepare the crust and tomatoes: Combine the flour, cheese, thyme, table salt, pepper, and cayenne in a food processor and pulse to blend thoroughly. Add the butter and pulse until the pieces are about the size of rice grains. Add the ice water through the feed tube, 1 Tbs. at a time, while pulsing in short bursts until the dough starts to come together. It may still look crumbly, but if you press it with your fingers, it should become compact. Don’t add more water than is necessary to get the dough to cling together. Turn it out onto a clean work surface and, using your hands, press and gather the dough into a rough ball. Put the ball on a sheet of waxed paper, gently shape it into a flat disk, and wrap it tightly. Refrigerate for at least 45 min. Meanwhile, core (but don’t peel) the tomatoes and slice them 1/4 inch thick. Sprinkle with 1/2 tsp. kosher salt, stack them in a colander set over a bowl, and let drain for at least 45 min. and up to 1 hour. About every 15 min., turn the slices gently and tilt the colander to let the juices drain freely. Assemble and bake: Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 425ºF. Cut a piece of parchment to fit a rimmed baking sheet (preferably a heavy-duty one) and put the baking sheet in the freezer to chill. Take the dough out of the refrigerator and let it warm until pliable, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle the parchment lightly with flour. Roll the dough on the parchment into a 14-inch round that’s 1/8 inch thick. It’s fine if the dough extends a little beyond the parchment. Transfer the parchment and dough to the chilled baking sheet and refrigerate for 15 min. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 5 min. to keep it from cracking. When filling the dough, work steadily without delays. Sprinkle two-thirds of the cheese over the center of the dough round, leaving a 2-inch-wide band around the edges. Scatter half the olives and half the basil over the cheese and arrange the tomato slices on top so they overlap slightly, making a solid layer. Sprinkle on the remaining basil and olives, the capers, and the rest of the cheese. Season with pepper and drizzle the olive oil over the filling. Fold the edges of the pastry over the edge of the filling, pleating it as you go so it forms a neatly fitting round edge. Bake until the dough is lightly browned, turning the pan halfway through baking, about 40 min. total. Carefully transfer the tart from the parchment to a rack and let it rest for at least 30 min. before cutting and serving. Leftovers keep well at room temperature for a day or two. Reheat for 10 to 15 min. at 350ºF |

Gluten-Free Tomato Tart - Recipe for Gluten-Free Tomato Tart
Source : Teri Gruss, MS, Your About.com Guide to Gluten-Free Cooking Similar to a quiche, this gluten-free tomato tart recipe is rich enough to serve as an entree. It works equally well as a side dish, served with a light poultry or fish dinner. The gluten-free tart crust is easy to work with and has a rich, buttery flavor. This recipe is an adaptation of Tomato Zucchini Tart, which appears in The Tomato Cookbook by Victoria Lloyd-Davies. Ingredients: 2 medium peeled, thinly sliced tomatoes 1 cup sliced, blanched zucchini 2 lightly beaten large eggs 2/3 cup half and half, or dairy free substitute (I use organic coconut milk) 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions 1 tablespoon fresh, minced chives 1 tablespoon fresh, minced thyme 1 tablespoon fresh, minced sage Salt and pepper to taste 1/4 cup shredded Swiss cheese 1 partially baked gluten free tart crust (recipe below) Preparation: • Preheat oven to 375° F. • Place the partially baked tart shell (still in the tart pan) on a baking sheet. • Place sliced tomatoes and zucchini on the bottom of the tart crust. • Combine the lightly beaten eggs, half and half (or milk substitute), green onions, chives, thyme and sage. • Add salt and pepper and whisk to blend. • Pour the mixture into the tart crust and sprinkle shredded cheese evenly over the top. • Bake 30-40 minutes or until the filling is set and top of tart is golden brown. • Let cool for several minutes. • Carefully remove tart from the pan, pushing up on the bottom of the pan. Yield- 4 to 6 servings Reminder: Always make sure your work surfaces, utensils, pans and tools are free of gluten. Always read product labels. Manufacturers can change product formulations without notice. When in doubt, do not buy or use a product before contacting the manufacturer for verification that the product is free of gluten. Gluten-Free Savory Shortcrust This buttery and tender savory gluten-free shortcrust recipe is adapted to gluten-free cooking from a recipe which appears in Artisan Patisserie for the Home Baker by Master Baker Avner Laskin. Use Savory Gluten-Free Shortcrust to make delicious tarts and quiches. A food processor makes this recipe extremely fast and easy! Freeze dough for up to 2 months- an ideal make-ahead recipe for busy gluten-free cooks! Ingredients: 1/2 cup cold butter, cut in 1 tablespoon pieces 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 large egg 1 tablespoon ice water 1/4 cup almond meal (see tips) 1/4 all purpose gluten-free flour mix (I used Bob's Red Mill Pizza Crust Mix with good results) 3/4 cup light buckwheat flour OR sorghum flour Preparation: • Preheat oven to 375° F / 190°C • Add butter pieces and salt to a food process and pulse until combines and smooth. • Add egg, water, almond meal and all purpose gluten-free flour mix and pulse until combined and smooth. • Add buckwheat flour OR sorghum flour and pulse until the mixture forms a ball. • Use a spatula to scrape the soft dough onto a lightly floured piece of waxed paper. • Lightly dust the ball with flour and shape into a disk. • Wrap dough with the waxed paper and refrigerator for at least one hour or until firm before rolling. • If you are making the dough to freeze, wrap tightly in waxed paper, followed by plastic wrap and place in a freezer bag. • Label, freeze and store for up to 2 months. • If the dough is for immediate use continue with directions. • Roll the dough between 2 sheets of lightly floured waxed paper. • Remove the top sheet of waxed paper and take the remaining sheet with the dough and gently turn upside down onto the tart pan or pie plate. • Gently peel back the waxed paper and press the dough into the pan. • If the dough tears just patch with pieces of dough. • If using a tart pie, press the dough into the fluted sides of the pan and roll a rolling pan across the top of the pan to remove excess dough-this creates a nice thick top edge for the crust. • Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until crust is light golden brown. Tips- • Save money- make your own fresh almond meal • Tart pans with removable bottoms with fluted edges make great looking quiche crust and the removable bottom makes cutting and serving quiche very easy! |

I happen to be in Catalunya and have found their breakfast or any time pan con tomate to be simple and delicious.
Toast coarse bread Rub toast vigorously with cut garlic clove Drizzle with olive oil Cut a small tomato through its equator and squeeze and rub it on the toast until only(mostly) the skin remains in your hand. Salt Eat Deliciós! If you prefer your toast softer, you can reverse the tomato and oil steps, the tomato will soak in more softening the toast. |
