The cheese-mayonnaise mixture melts down over the vegetables, and the crust browns beautifully, so it makes a very attractive presentation. A great summer supper with bread and a green salad, or a nice appetizer any time of year.

Yield:
4 servingsIngredients
2 cups Bisquick mix
3/4 cup milk
4 medium-size tomatoes, sliced
1/4 inch thick
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon dried chives
1 teaspoon dried parsley
1-1/2 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese
1/2 cup mayonnaise
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Mix together the Bisquick and milk. Press into the bottom and up the sides of a greased 9-inch pie plate. Layer the tomatoes and green pepper in the pie plate, sprinkling each layer with the herbs. Combine the cheese and mayonnaise and spread on top. Bake for 20 to 35 minutes, until the crust and top are golden. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
Are you honestly recommending the use of dried herbs in the height of summer when herb gardens and farmers’ markets are overflowing? And Bisquick mix?? I expect better from Yankee Magazine.
Just wait till you taste this! I have been making it for several years using only tomatoes. You can use fresh herbs but dried taste just fine and I always have what I need. Delicious!!
I’ve made this recipe and it’s wonderful. I had a similar recipe already and have made it for several years — it tastes like summer!
Delicious receipe. I have made several times and always asked for the receipe.
The bisquick and milk combination creates a batter the consistency of pancake mix. How do you push that type of batter up the sides of a pie pan. It is almost liquid. I added additional bisquick and flour to create the consistency of a soft dough. I hope it turns out okay.
Fantastic recipe to use the fresh tomatoes from my garden. I eliminated the green peppers and just used tomatoes… excellent !!!!!!
Wonderful! I’ve made it twice while back home on vacation in Kansas. My mom gets to have someone cook for her, and she and my wife have big smiles when dinner is over. They both try to sneak some of the leftover crust.
I stuck to the recipe, except I did a pinch more on the dry herbs. The tomatoes and peppers were fresh from the garden. Very flavorful! Thanks!!
