Steps:
- Cut pie crust into circles,(you are going to be putting these into muffin tins -- use your best judgement on the size. I use a glass and usually get 7 from each pie crust).
- Place each circle of crust into sprayed muffin tin.
- Dock each crust with fork several times.
- Bake in 400 degree oven for 8 - 10 minutes, until lightly browned.
- Remove pie crust from muffin tin and place on cookie sheet (this helps ensure they don't stick to the tin while cooking the next step).
- Place tomatoes in colander and set in the sink.
- Sprinkle with salt and allow to drain 15 minutes.
- Pat drained tomatoes lightly with paper towels.
- Fill each cup with a tablespoon of tomatoes, a little onion, a little bacon and a pinch of basil.
- Combine the cheeses and mayonnaise together.
- Spread mixture on top of tomatoes mounding it up.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in a 375 degree oven, or until top is slightly browned.
TOMATO PIE

Steps:
- Arrange the tomato and onion slices in a single layer on a paper towel-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with salt. Let sit for 1 to 2 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Fit the pie crust into a 9-inch pie plate and crimp the edges. Prick the bottom and sides with a fork. Line the crust with aluminum foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the edges of the crust are just golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the foil and weights and continue to bake until the bottom of the crust is dry and brown, another 15 to 20 minutes. Cool completely.
- Mix together the Cheddar, mozzarella and mayonnaise in a medium bowl. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few cracks of black pepper.
- Transfer the tomatoes and onions to a dry paper towel and pat dry. Liberally season the tomatoes with cracked black pepper. Arrange a third of the tomatoes in a single layer in the pie crust, overlapping slightly. Sprinkle a third of the basil over the tomatoes and top with a third of the onions. Repeat twice with the remaining tomatoes, basil and onions. Spread the mayonnaise mixture over the top of the onions.
- Bake until the topping is golden brown and bubbling, 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool completely. Garnish with basil leaves. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

- On a lightly floured work surface, unfold the puff pastry and roll lightly to flatten. Using a 2 1/2-inch cookie cutter, cut out pastry circles and place, evenly spaced, on the parchment.
- Using a fork, generously prick (dock) the pastry circles to the edges.

- Bake until puffed and golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
