This is so easy, simple and fresh! I make this often with just a nice green salad. You can reduce the fat by using 2% mozzarella and using less than 8 oz. Ingredients:
pie crust (i use pillsbury ready to bake pie crusts) |
8 ounces shredded mozzarella cheese |
2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped |
4 -5 ripe tomatoes (plum tomatoes are best) |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400.
2. Slice the tomatoes into 1/2 slices.
3. Line a 10 loose bottom tart pan with the pastry (pie) dough.
4. Spread bottom of pastry with the mozzarella cheese and sprinkle with the basil.
5. Cover with tomato slices, arranging to cover as evenly as possible.
6. Sprinkle tomatoes with salt and pepper, then drizzle with the olive oil.
7. Bake 30-40 minutes.
8. Garnish with fresh chopped basil.
9. Serve warm or at room temperature.
