• 1 egg
• 1 tablespoon water
• Fresh Basil

Directions:

2. Roll out the pie shell onto the assembled baking sheet (this reduces the damage that might occur when transferring from the counter to the baking sheet).

4. Sprinkle salt and pepper over the tomatoes and mozzarella.
5. Fold up the edges of the pie shell up and over the tomatoes and mozzarella.
6. Whisk together the egg and water and brush this mixture over the pie shell. Sprinkle salt over the pie shell.
