• 1 Frozen Pie Crust
• 2 Large Beefsteak Tomatoes
• Salt and Pepper
• 1 Tbsp Chopped Fresh Basil
• 1 Cup Heavy Mayonaise
• 1 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
• 1 Tbsp Chopped Chives

Method-

Preheat an oven at 400 degrees and bake the pie crust for 10 minutes. Cool on a wire rack and lower the temperature to 350 degrees.

Bring a pot of water to a boil, remove the tops of the tomatoes and score the bottoms with an “X”. Boil for 1-2 minutes and then plunge in ice water. Peel the skins off and slice into 1/4 thick pieces.

Arrange the tomato slices in the bottom of the pie shell and make sure that the tomatoes are all inside the edge of the crust. Season with salt and pepper and fresh basil.

In a medium bowl, combine the mayo, cheese and chives. Spread over the tomatoes and bake for 30-40 minutes until golden brown.

Allow to cool for 30minutes before cutting and serving
