FRESH TOMATO MAC N' CHEESE PIZZA PIE




Source of Recipe


Florida Tomatoes


List of Ingredients




2 LARGE FRESH Florida tomatoes

1-1/2 cups elbow macaroni (uncooked)

6 tablespoons ketchup, divided

3 large eggs, lightly beaten

12 slices (8ounces) American processed cheese, divided

1 hot dog, thinly sliced (about ¼ cup)

Recipe



Preheat oven to 350F. Use tomatoes held at room temperature until fully ripe. Core and cut tomatoes into1/4-inch thick slices; set aside. Cook macaroni in unsalted water according to package directions (makes about 5 cups); drain well. Lightly spray a 12-inch pizza pan with nonstick cooking spray.

In a large bowl combine macaroni with 4 tablespoons of the ketchup, the eggs and 8 slices of the cheese torn into small pieces. Spoon macaroni mixture onto prepared pizza pan, pressing down lightly to even out. Around outside edge, arrange overlapping tomato slices; brush remaining 2 tablespoons ketchup over tomatoes.

Cut 4 remaining cheese slices diagonally in halves; place partially over tomatoes. Arrange hot dog slices in center.

Bake until mixture is hot, about 20 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Yield: 6 portions
