Pizza - Slab Tomato Pie

A little about categorizing bread. Our system is not scientific by a long shot. We've placed them into table, flat, dessert, and fried. Table bread may include loaves of sandwich-type bread or something designed to serve as a loaf or dinner bun at the table. Flat is generally un-yeasted bread that is flat (duh!). Fried can be pan-fried or deep-fried. Dessert is for delectables such as banana bread. The words dressing and stuffing are interchangeable, depending where you live. Many will contain bread, others may not. This is dizzying.

1 box Pillsbury™ refrigerated pie crust, softened as directed on box
1 container (7 oz) refrigerated basil pesto
4 medium plum (Roma) tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1/3 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil leaves, if desired

Heat oven to 400°F. On lightly floured surface, unroll and stack crusts one on top of the other. Roll to 17x12-inch rectangle. Fit crust into ungreased 15x10x1-inch pan, pressing firmly into corners and sides. Fold extra crust underneath and slightly on top edges of pan; poke bottom and sides of crust with fork. Bake 10 to 13 minutes or until light golden brown; remove from oven, and cool 5 minutes. Spread pesto on partially baked crust. Place tomato slices on top of pesto layer. Bake 7 to 10 minutes or until tomatoes are heated through. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese is melted. Before serving, garnish with chopped fresh basil.
