Tomato Pie

Ingredients

• 1 frozen deep dish pie shell
• 4 red, ripe tomatoes

• 10 fresh basil leaves, torn or

• 1 cup shredded mozzarella
• cheese
• 1 cup shredded cheddar
• cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded Parmesan

Directions

1. Wash tomatoes and pat dry. Slice tomatoes 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. If you want to eliminate some of the moisture from your tomatoes, place slices in a colander and salt lightly.
2. Let stand in fridge for 1-2 hr. Lightly shake out the excess moisture, dry gently with paper towels.
3. Parbake pie shell in 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes or according to package directions.
4. While pie shell is baking, in a bowl combine the basil, garlic, Mayo and cheeses. Stir well. Season with salt and pepper.
5. Remove pie shell from oven. Place tomato slices evenly in the bottom of the shell, about two-thirds high. Top with combined ingredients and spread across pie evenly. Place the finished pie back in the oven for 30 minutes. It will be golden brown and bubbly.
