Ingredients
- 1 onion
- 1/4 cup cheddar cheese, grated
- 1/2 cup yogurt or cottage cheese
- 1/2 cup plum tomatoes, thinly sliced
- 1/8 cup olives, sliced
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
- 1 pie crust dough (store-bought or homemade)
Instructions
-
Prepare Onions: Begin by cooking the onions with salt to taste until they are soft. Once done, set them aside to cool slightly.
-
Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
Roll Out Dough: Roll out the pie crust dough into a 14-inch round, approximately 1/8 inch thick. Ensure it is large enough to cover the bottom and sides of your casserole dish with some overhang.
-
Line Casserole Dish: Place the rolled-out dough into a casserole dish, ensuring there is plenty of dough overhanging the edges.
-
Layer Onions: Spread the cooked onions evenly over the dough in the casserole dish.
-
Add Cheese: Next, spread the yogurt or cottage cheese over the onions, creating a creamy layer.
-
Top with Grated Cheese: Sprinkle the grated cheddar cheese over the yogurt or cottage cheese layer, ensuring even coverage.
-
Arrange Tomato Slices: Arrange half of the thinly sliced plum tomatoes on top of the cheese layer.
-
Add Olives: Sprinkle the sliced olives over the tomatoes, adding a burst of flavor.
-
Season: Season the tomato layer with salt and pepper to taste, enhancing the flavors of the pie.
-
Final Layer: Finish by arranging the remaining tomato slices on top of the pie, creating a visually appealing pattern.
-
Bake: Place the assembled pie into the preheated oven and bake for approximately 35-40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
-
Rest: Once baked, remove the pie from the oven and let it sit for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and makes it easier to slice and serve.
-
Serve: Slice the Tomato & Onion Pie into portions and serve warm, savoring each delicious bite!
