Ingredients
- 1 inch pre-baked pie crust
- 3 tomatoes , peeled and sliced (Roma work best)
- 1 small zucchini , sliced into rings
- 1 small yellow squash , sliced into rings
- 1/2 cup sweet onion (or red onion), sliced
- 10 fresh basil leaves , chopped
- 1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
- 1 cup freshly shredded cheddar cheese
- 3/4 cup mayonnaise (or half mayo, half Greek yogurt)
- 2 Tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place the tomatoes in a colander in the sink in 1 layer. Sprinkle with salt and allow to drain for 10 minutes.
- Use a paper towel to pat-dry the tomatoes and make sure most of the excess juice is out. (You don't want very wet tomatoes or your pie will turn out soggy).
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season zucchini and squash with salt and pepper. Saute the squash in a single layer for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove to a paper towel
- Layer the zucchini, squash, tomato slices, and onion on the bottom of the pie shell. (Make sure pie shell is pre-baked, and completely cool, to avoid sogginess). Sprinkle basil on top.
- Combine the grated cheeses and mayonnaise together. Smooth cheese mixture over the top and sprinkle parmesan cheese on top.
- Bake for about 30 minutes or until lightly browned. Allow to cool for at least 15 minutes.
- To serve, cut into slices and serve warm.

Notes
- Make Ahead Instructions: The squash, zucchini, and onion may be sliced up to one day ahead of time. The cheese spread may also be made ahead and just kept in the fridge.
- To Freeze: I don't recommend freezing this recipe because the vegetables may make the crust soggy when it thaws, and the mayo in the topping doesn't freeze well. You may use a frozen, thawed pre-baked pie shell, to save time.
