- 1 10- inch unbaked pie shell
- 1/3 cup Dijon mustard
- 1 pound mozzarella cheese thinly sliced

Preheat oven to 400 F.
Spread mustard evenly over pie shell, then cover bottom completely with mozzarella.
Beginning at the outer edge of the shell, make a layered overlapping row of the tomato and zucchini slices, alternating for color. Make a second row and then use enough of the remaining slices to fill the center.
Sprinkle the top evenly with the garlic and oregano.
Season to taste with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil.
Place pie on a baking sheet and bake for about 40 minutes.
Sprinkle top with chopped fresh basil and serve.
