Rustic Tomato Pesto Tart

I LOVE the idea of rustic tarts - this one using pesto (which I adore - especially the one I get at Costco) sounds DELISH:

1 sheet refrigerated pie pastry
1 & 1/2 cups shredded part-skim mozzarella, divided into 1 cup and 1/2 cup
2 thinly sliced plum tomatoes (I would use Campari - they are sweeter)
1/2 cup light* mayo
1/4 grated Parmesan
2 T. classic Pesto Sauce - Cibo is the brand I buy
1/2 t. freshly ground pepper

On a lightly floured surface, roll the pie pastry into a 14x12" rectangle; transfer to a baking sheet. Prick with a fork, and flute or fold in edges. Bake at 425 for 6-8 mins. or until lightly browned. Sprinkle with 1 cup of mozz., and top with tomatoes. Combine mayo, 1/2 cup mozz., Parmesan, Pesto sauce, and pepper. Spread over tomatoes. Bake 10-12 mins. or until golden brown. Serve with melon balls.

Be a cheer leader for someone today!!! It will add to your FUN.
