Plum Tomato Pie
Not really a pie, more like a pizza, the combination of heirloom tomatoes and fresh basil are a perfect light dinner.

Source: Simply in Season
1 1/2 cups flour
7 Tbsp butter
1/3 cup cheddar cheese (shredded)
4 Tbsp water
1/2 tsp salt
1 egg yolk
3 Tbsp dried bread crumbs
2 lbs plum tomatoes, sliced
4 oz feta cheese crumbled
2 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup basil, chopped
1. Cut together flour and butter until crumbly. Add the cheese, salt, and water and mix together until the dough just starts to come together. Form into a ball, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Roll out onto a cookie sheet or pizza pan.
2. Brush egg yolk onto the pastry; sprinkle with bread crumbs; arrange tomatoes on top, leaving a wide border on the outside.
3. Top with feta and then turn the edges of the pastry over the tomato filling. Bake in preheated oven at 350F for 30-40 minutes.
4. Remove from oven and sprinkle with olive oil and basil. Serve.

The Verdict: Although a little bit of work for a weeknight supper, this was absolutely delicious. I wasn’t sure from the directions if the crust was supposed to cover the whole thing, like a pizza, or just the edges, like a tart. I went halfway. DH said, “Times like this, I really wish Simply in Season had pictures.” When I posted this sentiment on Facebook, a friend of mine replied “you ARE my pictures for SIS.” I suppose one of the things I’ve learned through this cookbook is that it really doesn’t matter. Especially in this case, the combination of heirloom tomatoes, feta cheese, and basil is a winner–regardless of how far the crust extends.
