It is the time of year that every gardener and Burke Area Farmers Market shopper has kitchen counters piled high with tomatoes and zucchini. Lucky for us, Jo Wulf of JoRassic Park Gardens shared an easy and delicious savory summer pie that can use some of this garden bounty. The seasonings in the Bisquick topping over the veg add just the right amount of zip to make our taste buds sing.
Zucchini and Tomato Pie can be a light lunch, a complete meal with a salad, or an interesting and delicious side dish beside just about anything from the grill. We have it on our menu for every late summer pot luck dinner.
Jo is really a lifesaver for the zucchini and tomatoes with this inviting recipe.
