BACON TOMATO PIE
Each year, I look forward to tomato season so I can make this delicious fresh tomato pie. For vegetarians, it may be made without the bacon with great results. However, using canned or hot-house tomatoes will significantly alter the flavor. Delicious side dish, or as a light dinner. I like to serve with a green salad and fresh multigrain bread.

MUSHROOM, TOMATO, BACON AND EGG PIE
This is based on a Pampas Pastry recipe that I've had for years. I added the tomato and onion to give it just that bit more pizazz! Also, I substituted puff pastry for the shortcrust pastry in the original recipe. If you make too much filling for the pie case, you can refrigerate it for up to two days and use it in a savoury omelette or scramble.
