Tomato Pie
"I grew up on a farm. There were 10 of us kids and our parents and nothing was wasted. When and if there was leftover mashed potatoes and sliced tomatoes,(and we tried to leave some cause we liked this) Mom would make this tomato pie. Then again, she would sometimes threaten to make potato cakes if we didn't eat all the mashed potatoes. We would clean them up cause we hated potato cakes!"

This was quite tasty but just too soupy and neither the tomatoes nor onions had cooked enough for our tastes in the 20 minutes recommended, even though I cooked it an additional 10 minutes. Next time I will stew the onions and tomotes a little, thicken them, then add the mashed potatoes and bake as recommended. Did sprinkle a little fresh sweet basil on top of the tomatoes and it gave it a wonderful zing. -
I made this and to avoid soup tomatos I spray the pan heavy with butter spray then add 1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs and 1/4 cup parmigiana then layer my tomato's and finish with mayo then shredded cheddar almost like a bottom crust

This was very tasty. Not soupy like Dorothy experienced. Easy to make and a nice change of pace. -
I thought this was a very good country style dish. I took note of the previous comment and sauted sliced onions in a heavy pan, added peeled and seeded tomatoes and reduced some of the liquid. I then topped this mixture with potatoe and cheese and baked right in the pan, Excellent.

I love to cook,in fact you could call it my favorite hobby
My pet peeve is telemarketers,Every time I get busy with my recipe hobby one of them will call and knock me off the web,and of coarse I waste precious time getting back on.I am disabled,so I no longer work,and have plenty of time to pursue my hobby.
My best dish I make is Lasagna but thats just because I love lasagna.I am also asked to bring No-Bake cookies at all of our potlucks, and linger-longers at church.Meat loaf is another often requested dish I am asked to bring...... NOT MY meatloaf but .... My husbands.
He is as good a cook as I am,He can cook anything I can cook, and I can cook anything he can cook,but some things I make better,and some He makes better...So we do a lot of compromising at our house.
