A delicious bite-sized appetizer, perfect for your holiday parties.
More About This Recipe
- Tomato pie has always been a classic summer appetizer in my family. I wanted to make a version for my Christmas party this year so I decided to give the dish a winter update. Instead of a large rustic pie I made mini bite-sized ones. Instead of fresh tomatoes from the garden, nice fire roasted tomatoes from a can. A little basil oil to finish it off and these minitomatopies were a perfect snack to put out as people arrived at a dinner party I hosted last week. These pies came out really good. They’re the perfect size to pop into your mouth, and have flavors that everyone loves. It didn't hurt that they were really cute too.

Step3Strain the tomatoes and lightly salt. If you decide to use the ricotta, mix it in with the tomatoes. I did half of the pies with ricotta and half without. Add a spoonful of tomatoes to each pie crust, enough to fill them up.
