I haven't had this dish in years. I recently just tried to make it myself and it turned out to be completely delicious! I am not even a huge tomato fan and I think that this dish rocks. It was a huge success at our last gathering. I am planning on making it again this weekend for our Memorial Day BBQ.
Ingredients:
1 single pie crust (I used the same crust I usually use to make apple pie http://glutenfreethetastyway.blogspot.com/2012/07/american-as-apple-pie.html)
1 1/2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
5 Roma tomatoes
1 cup fresh basil leaves
4 cloves garlic
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to taste.
1. Pre-heat the oven to 450degrees.
2. Press the crust into a tart pan (you can also use a pizza pan or cookie sheet).
3. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fort and bake for about 8 minutes.
4. Reduce the oven temp to 375 degrees.
5. Sprinkle the crust with about 1/2 cup of mozzarella.
6. Cut the tomatoes into 1/4 inch think slices and drain on paper towels.
7. Use a food processor to roughly chop the garlic and basil.
8. Place the tomatoes on the cooled crust and sprinkle the garlic and basil mixture on top.
9. In a mixing bowl mix the remaining mozzarella, mayonnaise, and Parmesan cheese.
10. Spoon the cheese mixture evenly over the top of the tomatoes.
11. Bake for 35-40 minutes at 375 degrees until the top is golden and bubbly.
