Fresh Tomato Pie
- 4 fresh tomatoes sliced 1/4" thick
- salt
- fresh basil leaves chopped
- vidalia onion roughly chopped
- 2 teaspoons garlic
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup plain yogurt
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella
- pepper
- pastry shell pre-made
- Roll out pastry shell and add to 9" pie plate. Weigh down with pie weights or dry beans and bake at 350u0b0 for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
- Place sliced tomatoes in a large colander in the sink and sprinkle liberally with salt in order to drain off as much liquid as possible. Allow to set while preparing other ingredients.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil. Add chopped onions and garlic and sautee until onions are tender and garlic begins to brown.
- In a mixing bowl, combine yogurt, cheese and pepper (to taste). Mix well.
- Remove pie weights from cooled pie shell. Spread onion/garlic across bottom. Transfer tomato slices from colander to paper towels in order to dry any excess liquid. Layer tomato slices and fresh basil, overlapping slices as the layers build. Spread cheese/yogurt mixture to cover top.
- Bake at 350u0b0 for 35-45 minutes or until top lightly browns.
- Remove from oven and allow to cool 10-15 minutes before serving.
