The pigs have happily made their debut and I thank all of you for stopping by and saying a thing or two.
Now onto a more nutritious entree. While it may not be the prettiest thing, it is pretty tastey.
Zucchini and Tomato Tart on a Potato Crust
2 cups shredded potatoes
2 eggs
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup pecorino romano
1 teaspoon each oregano, basil
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 medium sized zucchinis, sliced thinly with a vegetable peeler or mandoline.
4 large tomatoes, sliced thinly
4 oz Fontina
4 oz mozzarella
1/2 cup Pecorino Romano
s and p to taste
You start with some shredded potatoes, chopped onion, egg, salt, garlic powder, herbs and Pecorino Romano. Mix in a bowl and place in a sprayed or greased jelly roll pan. Bake at 375F until crusty and golden.
Add a layer of cheese. I used some Fontina, mozzarella, and some more Pecorino Romano. This layer of cheese helps prevent sogginess from the ingredients that go on top.
A layer of peeled zucchini and a layer of tomatoes.
Bake again until the tomatoes begin to dry out. You want this crispiness at the bottom.
Slice and enjoy.

You had me at potato crust!
This looks really interesting. I love the pre-baking of the potatoes. That finished crust is a thing of beauty.
Cool!
Very original! That tart looks delicious!
