Hello Pat,
I found several. Check the ones below. If none of these is right, and you can
narrow the ingredients down, let me know and I'll look some more.
Phaed
Tomato Cheese Pie
Ingredients :
9 inch pie shell
5 med. ripe tomatoes
1/2 lb. (1/2 c.) grated cheese (use Mozzarella)
4 eggs
1/2 c. milk
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. pepper
Preparation :
Fill pie plate with alternate layers of tomato slices and chese.
Beat eggs and milk. Stir in salt and pepper. Pour over
tomato/cheese mixture. Bake at 450 degrees 15 minutes. Reduce to
325 degrees for 40 minutes until center is firm. Let stand 10
minutes before cutting. (Fresh basil sprinkled over top before
baking is nice.) Serves 4-6.
----------------------------------
Tomato Pie
Ingredients :
1 c. Bisquick
1/4 c. water
1 tbsp. butter
4-5 med. tomatoes
1 c. shredded Cheddar cheese
1/2 c. mayonnaise
1-2 green onions
2 tbsp. fresh parsley

Mix Bisquick mix, water and soft butter with fork and press into a
9 inch pie dish. Layer tomatoes, peeled and sliced 1/2 inch thick

1 tsp. dried thyme
Ground pepper to taste
3 tbsp. olive oil
1 doz. black olives, sliced in half
5 slices provolone cheese
6 oz. grated mozzarella cheese
Preparation :
Roll out the pie crust to fit a 9 inch round or square deep dish
baking pan. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Prick pie crust with a
fork evenly on bottom and sides. Put a layer of dried beans in the
crust to prevent the bottom from bubbling up. Bake for 10 minutes.
Let crust cool for 10 minutes, remove beans. While the crust is
cooking, slice tomatoes into 1/2 inch slices. Lay tomato slices on
a platter and sprinkle with salt, pepper, herbs and garlic powder.
When crust is cool, layer bottom with provolone slices. Then tomato
slices. Sprinkle with half of the olive oil. Put grated mozzarella
on top and dot with olive slices. Sprinkle top with other half of
olive oil. Bake in the 375 degree oven for 25 minutes or until
bubbly and brown on top like a pizza. Let pie sit for 10 minutes
before cutting. Serves 3 people 2 good slices each. I prefer a
butter crust. Great with a side salad.

Hi there Uncle! There are recipes Im dying to have but cannot find
them in your archives or any of the sites Ive scoured over the years,
can you help at all? Thanks a million!
Last bnut not least, there is a refrigerator cake with some kind of
very thin cookies separating at least 7-10 layers -it had chocolate
in the layers but also some kind of cream or frosting. All the layers
were extremely thin... it was scrumptious!
If you can help at all id REALLY appreciate it!!!!!
Sincerely,
Cathy
Hi Cathy,
Please send each request in a separate e-mail.
Regarding the other two, searching for a recipe on the Internet requires unique words or combinations of words for the search engines to "key" on.
Descriptions of dishes are often too vague to make a search successful.
The below recipes are the closest that I could find to what you describe.
Phaed
Refrigerator Cake
Ingredients :
2 pkg. Stella Dora Anise Sponge cookies (not toast)
3 oz. pkg. chocolate pudding, not instant
3 oz. pkg. vanilla pudding, not instant
1 sm. container Cool Whip
Chopped nuts, optional
Preparation :
Cook pudding according to directions for pie filling. Let cool.
Line a 9 x 13 inch pan with sponge cookies which have been cut in
half lengthwise. Pour chocolate pudding on cookies. Put another
layer of cookies. Pour vanilla pudding on top. Cover with
remaining cookies. Refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
Spread with Cool Whip and sprinkle with nuts when ready to serve.
Note: Can be made as high as desired by alternating cookies and
pudding.

Hi Christine,
No charge for Unc's services.
I struck out on all three of these. There's just not much history of
individual recipes on the Internet.
However, I did find this website:
Food FAQ
These folks specialize in recipe histories & they list Mexican Wedding
Cookies as one they've already researched. Why don't you try them? They have
access to books, etc. that I don't have.
