Notes
- Using salted and drained tomatoes helps reduce moisture to avoid soggy crusts in the pies.
- These mini pies can be frozen after baking and cooling; flash freeze on a tray before wrapping individually for best storage.
- Reheat frozen pies in the microwave on high for about one minute; thawed pies warm in 30 seconds.
- You may substitute the pie crust with whole wheat or regular prepared crusts based on preference.
- Adjust seasoning according to taste, as sodium content may vary depending on added salt and brand ingredients.
