 Ingredients:

• 4 beefsteak tomatoes, sliced
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 cup chopped green onion
• 9 inch pie shell
• 3/4 cup mayonnaise
• 2 teaspoons cornstarch
• 1-1/2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
• Salt and pepper to taste
• (My addition)  4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled. 

Preparation:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Sprinkle tomatoes with salt and let stand 10 minutes; drain well on paper towels. Sprinkle pie crust with 3 tablespoons Parmesan cheese. Layer tomatoes and green onion over cheese. In medium bowl, combine mayonnaise with cornstarch, Cheddar cheese, 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, basil, Bacon and salt and pepper to taste; mix well.
Gently place dollops of the mayonnaise mixture over the tomatoes and spread to cover as much as possible. Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese.
Bake at 375 degrees F for 30-40 minutes or until pie crust is golden brown and mayonnaise mixture starts to brown.
