This tart really showcases heirloom tomatoes and is such an amazing addition to breakfast, lunch or dinner. For the crust, feel free to make from scratch or use store-bought dough – regardless, you will need to blind bake and cool your dough into a 10″ tart pan, or something similar in size.

Filling

2 c. ricotta cheese
2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
1 1/2 lb. heirloom tomatoes, sliced roughly 1/4″ thick
2 tbsp. chopped fresh basil
1 tbsp. fresh thyme
Sea salt and coarse ground pepper, to taste

Mix ricotta cheese and Parmesan cheese together into a bowl, and spread onto cooled crust. Layer heirloom tomatoes on top, sprinkle with basil, thyme, salt and pepper. Serve and enjoy!
