If you’re looking for the perfect holiday appetizer, look no further – and we mean no further – than this insanely cheesy, tomato-ey, luscious-to-the-point-of-being-lascivious pie!

There’s also so much herby goodness in this pie that to quote the great Bruce Springsteen, “I can’t stand myself.”

When you grab a slice of this colorful pie (resplendent in holiday colors, natch), your guests will be taken aback. They may even swoon.

But, you know what to do. Get them a comfy chair, a cocktail, and a fork. There’s going to be a whole lotta eatin’ goin’ on!

So, grab your F.N. Sharp Damascus Steel Utility Knife, and/or your F.N. Sharp Damascus Steel Chef Knife, get that cutting board ready and get to chopping!
