Preparation Steps
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Unroll the refrigerated pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Dock the bottom with a fork, then blind-bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Set aside to cool.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the thick-cut bacon until crispy, about 8 minutes. Remove and crumble into pieces, reserving 2 tablespoons of drippings.
- Using the same skillet with reserved drippings, sauté sliced sweet onions over medium-low heat for 10-15 minutes until caramelized.
- Slice medium ripe tomatoes, sprinkle with salt, and let them drain on a paper towel for about 10 minutes.
- Layer half of the crumbled bacon, half of the caramelized onions, and half of the drained tomatoes in the cooled pie crust. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
- In a medium bowl, mix mayonnaise, shredded cheddar, shredded mozzarella, salt, pepper, and fresh basil or dried herbs. Spread evenly over the layered ingredients.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until the topping is bubbly and golden brown.
- Allow the pie to cool for about 10 minutes before slicing and serve warm.

Notes
Blind-bake wisely to prevent a soggy crust. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
