Name: Rustic Summer Squash Tart
Prep time: 25 min
Total time: 1 h 5 min
Yield: 12
Ingredients: 1 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil; 1 lb. mixed summer squash (zucchini, yellow squash and pattypan); 2 shallots; 2 tsp. chopped fresh thyme or marjoram; 1 tsp. chopped garlic; Freshly ground pepper; 1 refrigerated pie crust (from a 15-oz. box); 4 oz. Roquefort cheese; 1 roasted yellow or red pepper (freshly roasted or from a jar); 1 large plum tomato, sliced; 1 large egg

Step 1Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add squash and shallots and cook, turning pieces as they start to color, 7 minutes or until crisp-tender. Remove from heat; stir in thyme, garlic and pepper to taste. Cool to room temperature.

Step 2Heat oven to 400°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; unroll or unfold pie crust on the parchment. With a rolling pin, roll crust to a 13-in. round. Crumble half the cheese over crust to within 2 in. of edge. Arrange squash mixture, pepper strips and tomato slices on cheese; fold edge of the crust over filling and brush crust with egg.

Step 3Bake 35 to 40 minutes until pastry is golden. Slide tart, still on parchment, onto a wire rack. Crumble remaining cheese over top. Let cool before serving.
