Tomato Pie

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 350u00b0F.

2. 2

   Cut tomatoes in half and lightly squeeze to remove excess juice and seeds. Slice tomatoes and place in a single layer on a couple layers of paper towels. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for about 20 minutes, to get rid of excess moisture.

3. 3

   Once your pie shell is cooked and still hot from the oven, cover the bottom with Parmesan cheese and 1/2 of the shallots. Let cool.

4. 4

   In a medium bowl, mix together the grated cheddar and Havarti cheese, mayonnaise, hot sauce, and a sprinkling of salt and freshly ground black pepper.

5. 5

   Layer 1/2 the tomatoes into the pie crust, cover with remaining shallots and 1/2 the basil. Repeat with the remaining tomatoes and basil.

6. 6

   Spread the cheese mixture over the top of the pie, place in the oven and bake until browned and bubbly, 35-50 minutes. Cover crust edge with foil during cooking to protect from over browning, if needed.
