Ancient Political Wit “If you don’t read the newspaper you are uninformed. If you do read the newspaper you are misinformed.” Mark Twain Suppose you were an idiot, and suppose you were a member of Congress…but, then I repeat myself.” Mark Twain I contend that for a nation to try to tax itself into prosperity is like a man standing in a bucket and trying to lift himself up by the handle.” Winston Churchill A government which robs Peter to pay Paul can always depend on the support of Paul.” George Bernard Shaw I don’t make jokes. I just watch the government and report the facts.” Will Rogers A government big enough to give you everything you want, is strong enough to take everythin you have.” Thomas Jefferson Talk is cheap …except when Congress does it.”

Ingredients for Garden Fresh Tomato Pie The star of this pie is tomatoes, and you’ll want them ripe and juicy for the best flavor. The pie crust serves as a crispy, buttery base, holding all the deliciousness together. We use a mix of mozzarella and cheddar cheese for a gooey, savory topping that browns beautifully in the oven. Mayonnaise adds creaminess and helps bind the cheese layer. Fresh basil adds a fragrant, herbal note, while a touch of garlic powder and black pepper round out the seasoning. Finally, a drizzle of olive oil ensures a golden finish. Why This Garden-Fresh Tomato Pie Works During baking, the pie really depends on how the tomatoes and cheese mixture behave together. Salting the tomato slices and letting them sit pull out a lot of their water. After they are patted dry, the slices are still juicy, but they will not flood the crust. Because of that, the bottom crust can stay firmer instead of turning soggy. Inside the bowl, the mayonnaise and shredded cheeses form a thick spread. As it heats up, the cheese melts and the mayonnaise loosen, then everything settles into a smooth, creamy layer. That layer sinks down into the spaces between the tomato slices and holds them in place, almost like a soft, cheesy lid. In the oven, steady heat sets the crust and browns the top. The tomatoes soften but keep some shape, the cheese mixture bubbles, and firms up, and the olive oil on top keeps the surface from drying out. After a short rest, the filling thickens a bit more, so the slices cut cleanly instead of sliding apart.
Ingredients 1 9-inch pie crust 3 large tomatoes thinly sliced. 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup of mayonnaise 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil. 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder 1 tablespoon olive oil 13
Step-by-step Instructions 1. Preheat oven to 375°F. 2. Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan and pre-bake for 10 minutes. 3. Arrange the tomato slices in a single layer on paper towels, sprinkle with salt, and let them sit for 10 minutes to remove excess moisture. 4. In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, mozzarella, cheddar cheese, basil, black pepper, and garlic powder. 5. Pat the tomatoes dry and layer them into the prebaked crust. 6. Spread the cheese mixture over the top of the tomatoes evenly. 7. Drizzle olive oil over the cheese layer. 8. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until golden and bubbly. 9. Let it cool slightly before slicing and serving. Share
