Ingredients
-
1 ready to use frozen pie crust
12 roma tomatoes (diced or sliced, seeds removed)
3/4 cup part skim mozzarella cheese shredded
1 lb of sweet Italian chicken sausage, casing removed
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 medium yellow or red onion, sliced into rings
8 leaves fresh basil
1 Tbsp fresh oregano
Black pepper to taste, approx 1tsp
3 cloves fresh garlic, chopped
1 tsp of salt
Tips
try to get a lot of the seeds and lose pulp out of the tomatoes and strain them at least 10 minutes prior to layering in the pie to avoid a soggy pie
Directions
Put crust in pie pan and bake for 10 minutes until lightly browned at 350 degrees.
Use a non stick pan or spray with cooking spray. Remove chicken sausage from casing and cook until no longer pink. Remove sausage from pan and put in pie crust.
Again, using cooking spray, cook onion slices until translucent. Add on top of Sausage.
Sprinkle with minced garlic and Basil leaves
Layer slices of tomato on top, overlapping until entire pie has a good layer of tomatoes on it.
Sprinkle with salt, oregano and pepper
Mix ricotta, cottage cheese and parmesan cheese together. Spread or drop spoonfuls of the mixture all around the top of the pie.
Cover with mozzarella cheese.
Bake for 25 - 30 minutes or until the sides are bubbling and the cheese is lightly browned.
Let sit for 15 minutes to cool and firm up or it will be a little soupy.
