Tip

Cutting Green Onions

I recently tried a recipe that called for 3/4 cup green onions. Instead of using a knife, I found that snipping the onions with a pair of kitchen scissors took only a few seconds. —Kristy B., Kelowna, British Columbia

Excellent! I also spread some pesto on the bottom before I added the rest of the ingredients. It gave another nice flavor to the recipe........also used a mixture of mozzarella and provolone cheese.

This was a wonderfully flavorful dish. Everyone in the house devoured it (even the 11yr old pickypuss!)

I don't know what I did wrong. I had this dish at a restaurant and it was delicious. I have made it twice. First time I just guessed and it was terrible. Second time I used this recipe. It was better but not good like the restaurant. I did cook for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. My tomatoes may have been too big because it was about 2 inches above the pie shell. I used 5 large. I pulled a couple of pieces out but by then it didn't work. Are the tomatoes supposed to lie flat on the shell or lay on top of each other? I will try this again because I know it has to be good. I guess user error! I ate it anyway.

I doubled the amount of cheese, but probably didn't need to. This had lots of flavor, and even my skeptical kids liked it. I baked the crust pretty completely (13 min.), which I think helped it hold together, and kept it loosely covered with foil for the last half of baking time, to prevent the crust from being overcooked. Thanks for this--I'm so glad I tried it!

We enjoyed this pie. I made my own crust but baked it about 75 percent before I added the filling. I made this before and found a fully baked crust get too brown when I baked it again with the filling. I also added a bit of chopped fresh oregano with the basil. I have used both cheddar and mozzarella cheeses and they are both good.

Very, very good. Served a green salad with this and it was a nice summer meal.

Sound great and my family would love it with more onions, and oregano instead of basil and add ground beef! Will make this!
