pie crust

🥗Healthier: whole wheat crust

💰Cheaper: store-bought crust

Whole wheat crust adds fiber without sacrificing taste.

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a pie dish.

Slice the tomatoes and sprinkle with salt; let sit to drain excess moisture for 15 minutes.

In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat; sauté onions and garlic until softened, about 5 minutes.

Layer half of the tomatoes in the pie crust, followed by half of the cheddar cheese, then half of the sautéed onion mixture.

Repeat the layering with the remaining tomatoes, cheese, and onions.

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, mustard, vinegar, sugar, black pepper, and paprika until smooth.

Pour the egg mixture evenly over the layered tomatoes and cheese.

Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, until the filling is set and the top is golden brown.

Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
