Servings: 6
Ingredients
- Pie crust (1 (9-inch) prepared crust)
- Olive oil (2 tablespoons)
- Zucchini (1 medium, sliced)
- Yellow squash (1 medium, sliced)
- Red bell pepper (1, diced)
- Red onion (1 medium, sliced)
- Eggs (3 large)
- Milk (1/2 cup)
- Goat cheese (4 ounces, crumbled)
- Fresh basil (1/4 cup, chopped)
- Salt (to taste)
- Black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Roll out the pie crust and press it into a 9-inch tart pan, trimming any excess crust hanging over the edges.
- In a large bowl, toss the sliced zucchini, yellow squash, red bell pepper, and red onion with olive oil, salt, and pepper until well coated.
- Spread the seasoned vegetables evenly on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
- While the vegetables are roasting, in a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper until fully combined.
- Once the roasted vegetables have cooled slightly, spread the crumbled goat cheese evenly over the bottom of the tart crust.
- Arrange the roasted vegetables artfully on top of the goat cheese.
- Pour the egg mixture over the vegetables, ensuring it seeps through the layers.
- Sprinkle the chopped basil generously over the top.
- Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is set.
- Allow the tart to cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving warm or at room temperature.
