Description

Summertime is picnic time and tomato time. It's also the perfect time to make this quick, easy, and fresh French tomato tart with Swiss cheese and mustard.

Ingredients

1 (9 inch) refrigerated pie pastry
1/2 cup grainy brown mustard
6 slices Swiss cheese, about 1/4-inch thick
3 large ripe tomatoes, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon olive oil, or as needed
2 tablespoons herbes de Provence

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Fit pie pastry into a 9-inch pie dish. Poke holes in bottom of crust with a fork.
2 Spread mustard evenly over bottom of crust. Cover with Swiss cheese, then arrange tomato slices over top to cover cheese in a spiral, from the outer edge to the center. Drizzle oil over tomatoes and sprinkle herbes de Provence over top.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown, cheese is melted, and tomatoes are curled at the edges, about 20 minutes.
