Zucchini, Sun-Dried Tomato and Basil Tart

Serves 10-12

"This savory tart is a favorite in our house. Everyone loves it, especially Delaney, which is why she requested it for her graduation brunch. It has a bit of an Italian flavor with the basil and sun-dried tomatoes, and it looks nice on the brunch buffet, too. The fact that it can be served warm or at room temperature is a bonus. Definitely let it rest for a bit after taking it out of the oven so that it firms up and will be easier to slice and serve. This always goes fast," McBride says.

Ingredients:

2 frozen deep-dish piecrusts, thawed
3 cups shredded mozzarella
1 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
6 tablespoons crumbled goat cheese
1 cup drained and thinly sliced oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup thinly sliced fresh basil
½ cup chopped green onions
2 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano
2 small zucchini, sliced into ¼-inch rounds
4 large eggs
2 cups half-and-half
½ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions:

Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Prick the bottom of the crusts with a fork and prebake them for 5 to 8 minutes, or until lightly golden. Reduce the temperature to 400°F. Sprinkle 1 ½ cups of the mozzarella into each crust, then top each with ¼ cup of the Parmigiano-Reggiano, 3 tablespoons of the goat cheese, ½ cup of the sun-dried tomatoes, ½ cup of the basil, ¼ cup of the green onions, and 1 tablespoon of the oregano. Arrange the zucchini in concentric circles to cover the top of the tart. Whisk together the eggs, half-and-half, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Divide the mixture evenly between the piecrusts. Sprinkle each with ¼ cup of the remaining Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
Bake for 32 to 35 minutes, or until the custard is set and the crust is golden brown. Serve warm or at room temperature.
