I made homemade dough (and forgot to use the cornmeal), roasted the onions with balsamic vinegar, and sprinkled parmesan, goat cheese, and mozzarella cheese on top. The flavors were good; it didn't work well as a main dish for us. (Four adults.) After two small pieces I was wishing for regular pizza instead! I just couldn't eat a lot of it. However, I think it would work great as an appetizer. I almost threw the leftovers away, but in the end put it in the fridge. Ate a slice cold the next day, and it was still pretty good. Not good enough, though, because the remainder sat in the fridge a week till I dumped it. Not sure I'll make it again.

This was the first time I'd ever tasted green tomato pie, and was quite happy with the result. It wasn't perfect, but with a few tweaks next time, it should be! I used very green tomatoes (no red/orange), and should have cut them a little smaller, since they remained slightly crunchy. Next time I will also let the tomatoes strain in a colandar to remove more of the liquid prior to cooking. The pie was a bit watery when it came out of the oven, but it jelled into a heavy syrup when it cooled. The flavor was good; much like apple pie as noted. Next time I will use more cinnamon and omit the other spices. I prefer just cinnamon in apple pie, so likely will prefer it alone in green tomato pie.
