This delightful recipe for Crustless Corn and Tomato Pie is not only a great way to utilize extra bread but also serves as a unique dish for brunch or dinner. Bursting with the flavors of corn, tomatoes, and cheese, it’s a wholesome and satisfying meal that’s perfect for any time of day.

Ingredients:

1 1/2 cups whole kernel corn
1 can (about 6 tomatoes) no-salt-added whole tomatoes, drained and chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 green onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1/2 cup reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
2 tablespoons bread crumbs

Directions:

Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). This ensures that it’s perfectly heated and ready for baking.
Prepare the Pie Plate:
Spray a 10-inch pie plate with non-stick vegetable spray, ensuring even coverage to prevent sticking, and set it aside for later use.
Mix Ingredients:
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole kernel corn, chopped tomatoes, minced garlic, finely chopped green onion, chopped parsley, sugar, salt, and egg. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed and coated.
Transfer to Pie Plate:
Spoon the mixture into the prepared pie plate, spreading it out evenly to ensure consistent baking throughout.
Add Cheese and Bread Crumbs:
Once the mixture is in the pie plate, sprinkle the shredded reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese evenly over the top. Follow this with an even layer of bread crumbs, providing a crunchy texture and golden finish.
Bake:
Place the pie plate in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the pie is richly golden brown on top and the edges are slightly crispy.
Serve and Enjoy:
Once baked to perfection, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Slice into portions and serve warm, savoring the delightful blend of flavors and textures in every bite.
