"A man who was fond of wine was offered some grapes at dessert after dinner. "Much obliged," said he, pushing the plate aside; "I am not accustomed to take my wine in pills."--Jean Antheleme Brillat-Savarin, The Physiology of Taste

Directions:
In a bowl, combine the first four ingredients. Cut in shortening until crumbly. Add water, tossing with a fork until dough forms a ball. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. On a lightly floured surface, roll out dough to fit a 9-in. pie plate; transfer pastry to plate. Trim to ½ in. beyond edge of plate; flute edges. Bake at 375 for 10 minutes. Cool completely. Place tomatoes in the crust; sprinkle with salt, basil, pepper, onions, and cheeses. In a bowl, whisk flour, milk and eggs until smooth. Pour over filling. Bake at 375º for 40-45 min or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

Personal Notes:
It is best to make the crust ahead of time. I made four for my Sunday School class. I made the crusts the night before and after they cooled, I slipped them in a plastic bag till morning. I also chopped and shredded the rest. The pies went together really easily and were a total hit. YEAH!
