John’s Tomato Pie

This recipe was given to me by my dear friend during a visit to his South Carolina home. I have since baked this version of tomato pie several times and was quite taken back by how delicious it is. Hopefully, you’ll enjoy it as well.

Whether the tomato sandwich truly inspired tomato pie may never be fully proven. Like many regional dishes passed from one generation to another, its origins have become blurred over time.
