Making Tomato Pie with Tomatoes from the Garden

Hi kids! This is our last activity for the year, so I thought I'd do a recipe using produce from the garden. In the video below I'll show you how to make one of my favorite summer recipes with tomatoes from the garden! How would you like to try some tomato pie?!  Here's the recipe and video for you to follow along at home.  Tomato Pie  1 unbaked pie crust  4-5 tomatoes, sliced  1 teaspoon salt  1/4 cup fresh basil leaves  1/2 cup chopped white, yellow, or green onion  2 cups grated cheddar, mozzarella, or colby jack cheese  3/4 cup mayonnaise  Freshly ground black pepper, to taste Garlic powder, to taste Hot sauce, to taste Place foil strips around the rim of a store bought pie crust &  then par-bake for 10 minutes at 375 degrees to help prevent against a soggy crust bottom once the tomatoes are added to it. Slice the sliced tomatoes and sprinkle with a little salt to draw out excess juices for   10-15, Press the slices with a spatula a bit
