  2. Preheat oven to 425° F.
Prepare Tomatoes and Shallots:
    Cup of Yum
  1. Slice tomatoes into 1/4 inch thick slices removing seeds as you go, and place in a single layer on a paper towel lined surface.
  2. Sprinkle 1 tsp of salt to tomatoes to draw out moisture. Let sit for 30 minutes.
  3. Slice shallots very thinly and set aside.
For filling:
  1. Combine mayonnaise, egg, all 3 cheeses, salt and pepper. Set aside.
Put it all together:
  1. Pat tomatoes dry with a paper towel.
  2. Pull out your pie crust and quickly begin layering your ingredients beginning with a third of the the cheese mixture at the bottom. Layer a third of your tomatoes in an overlapping pattern, followed by a third of the shallots and basil. Continue to layer in this order so the final layer is overlapping tomatoes, shallot and basil (for a beautiful presentation).
  3. Bake at 425° for 30-45 minutes.
  4. Cool completely before cutting into 8 equal slices.
  5. Can be served warm or at room temperature.
