Ingredients

• 1 Whole wheat pie crust
• 4 Large ripe tomatoes
• 1.5 cups Shredded low sodium mozzarella cheese
• 10 Fresh basil leaves
• 0.25 cup Fresh chives
• 0.5 cup Plain Greek yogurt
• 0.5 cup Low sodium mayonnaise
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan and prick the bottom with a fork. Blind bake the crust for 10 minutes in the preheated oven to prevent it from getting soggy later. Remove and set aside to cool.

Step 3

While the crust is baking, slice the tomatoes into 1/4 inch thick rounds and lay them on paper towels. Sprinkle a bit of black pepper on both sides and let them rest for about 10 minutes to remove excess moisture.

Step 4

Chop the basil leaves and chives finely. Set aside.

Step 5

In a medium bowl, combine Greek yogurt, low sodium mayonnaise, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.

Step 6

Once the crust has cooled, layer half of the tomato slices on the bottom. Sprinkle half of the chopped basil and chives over the tomatoes.

Step 7

Spread half of the yogurt-mayonnaise mixture over the tomato and herb layer, then sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese.

Step 8

Repeat the layering process with the remaining tomato slices, herbs, yogurt-mayonnaise mixture, and cheese.

Step 9

Drizzle olive oil over the top layer of cheese.

Step 10

Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, until the cheese is bubbly and lightly golden.

Step 11

Allow the pie to cool for at least 10 minutes before cutting. Serve warm or at room temperature.
