Ritz Crunch Topped Tomatoes Food

COPYCAT MARY MAC'S TOMATO PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 - spray a 1.5-2 qt casserole dish (8×8 square or 5×7 rectangle) with non-stick spray
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat
• Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally until softened and carmelized, about 4-5 minutes.
• Add salt and pepper and remove from heat.
• Crush 1 sleeve of Ritz crackers in the bottom of the casserole dish (I prefer to crush by hand - I like the varied sizes of the pieces vs. pulverizing them with a food processor)
• Pour 1 can of tomatoes (undrained) over the crackers
• Spread 1/2 of the sautéed onions over the tomatoes
• Repeat the tomato/onion layers
• Crust 1 sleeve of Ritz crackers on top of the tomato/onion layer
• In a bowl, mix together mayo, cheddar, Parmesan and basil
• Spread this mixture on top of the cracker crumbs. You have to put it on in spoonfuls and then spread lightly with a knife otherwise it just sticks to your cracker crumbs. I laid the mayo mixture on a spot and then lightly spread it and repeated until I covered the crackers.
• Crush 1/2 sleeve of Ritz over top of the mayo mixture
• Bake for 30 minutes
• Serve
