Used Herbes de Provence instead of Thyme Leaves -- either way, it was an excellent meal - even my veggie haters loved it!

I made this pie with a few minor changes. I used a thawed, frozen premade pie crust, and did not bake it prior to adding the vegetables. I used all the same ingredients, but did add some salt and pepper along the way instead of just on top. Because we love this herb blend, I used Herbs de Provence instead of thyme. Layered onions & garlic first, then potatoes, zucchini, eggplant and tomatoes. The pie was not soggy. Can't wait to make again, and will try it with thyme, too!

Made them for Mother's Day and what a mistake. The idea is good, but very, very bland. It needs more flavor. Would have to think if I would spend time with the prep work. I was also confused if I was suppose to pre-bake the crust, which I did for 10 minutes.Also used Munster cheese.

Good basic pie but having made other veggie pies in the past I would actually do it a bit different, slice and lightly salt the veggies (lay them out on paper towels on cookie sheets to soak up some of the juices) and pat them dry after leaving them for 30 minutes. The salt draws out some of the moisture and makes the pie less soggy, then you can cook it without precooking the crusts. I would be more likely to add parsley and basil or oregano to the mix over thyme, which as someone has said is rather overpowering. All in all a nice summer dish.
