Prep Time: 20 minutes; Cook Time: 40 minutes; Yield: 6 to 8 slices Ingredients: 4 medium tomatoes, Salt, 1 regular pie crust 3/4 cup mayonnaise, 2 cups mozzarella cheese, 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, 3 garlic cloves, minced, 8 to 10 basil leaves, chopped (or 1 teaspoons dried basil) Instructions: Thinly slice the tomatoes and salt them. Place them in a strainer or on a cooling rack to allow the salt to draw out some of the moisture. Bake the pie crust per the instructions and cool. Preheat the oven to 350° F. In a medium bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, and minced garlic. Stir well and set aside. Return to the tomatoes and use paper towels to blot them well to remove the excess moisture. Layer the tomatoes and chopped basil in the pie crust. Spread the cheese mixture over the top. Bake for about 40 minutes or until the topping is golden brown. [Source] |
