Zucchini Tomato Pie

Ingredients:

  • 2 medium zucchinis, sliced
  • 2 medium tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Get that oven nice and hot while you prep your ingredients.
  2. Start by slicing the zucchinis and tomatoes into thin rounds. Don’t worry about being too perfect; rustic is best!
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant, but be careful not to burn it.
  4. Add the sliced zucchinis to the skillet and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook just until they start to soften, about 5-7 minutes. You want them tender but still firm enough to hold their shape.
  5. Now it’s time to assemble! Roll out your pie crust and place it in a pie pan. Layer the zucchini and tomato slices, alternating them for that beautiful look.
  6. In a bowl, mix together the shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, dried basil, and dried oregano. Sprinkle this cheesy goodness over the layered veggies.
  7. Finish it off by brushing the edges of the pie crust with beaten egg, giving it that golden, shiny look when it bakes.
  8. Pop the pie in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-35 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and the crust is golden brown.
  9. Once it’s done, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve it warm, and watch everyone rave about this masterpiece!

There you have it, a scrumptious Zucchini Tomato Pie that’ll blow your taste buds away. Trust me, this will become a go-to dish for you. Enjoy this slice of goodness with family and friends, and let the compliments roll in!
