CAPRESE PUFF PASTRY TART
I love caprese salad, but was looking for something a bit more filling for dinner. I pulled some puff pastry out of the freezer and decided to make a savory tart. Roasting the tomatoes first keeps sogginess to a minimum. Garnish with fresh basil leaves if you have them.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Combine cherry tomatoes, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper in a bowl; toss until well combined. Spread cherry tomatoes evenly on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast in the preheated oven until skins start to wrinkle and insides are soft, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool.
- Line another baking sheet with parchment paper. Unroll puff pastry sheet on top. Make shallow cuts 1 inch from the edges to create a border, being careful not to cut all the way through. Prick the inner rectangle all over with a fork.
- Bake in the preheated oven until puffed up slightly, about 10 minutes.
- Spread pesto over the center. Cover with 1/2 of the tomatoes. Scatter mozzarella cheese on top. Distribute remaining tomatoes over the cheese.
- Bake until pastry is golden and cheese is melted, 5 to 10 minutes more.

[email protected]This tart was a bit too salty for my taste, but overall it was a good recipe. I think next time I'll use less salt in the filling.

[email protected]I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of tomatoes, but I'm glad I did! The tart was delicious, and the tomatoes were perfectly complemented by the other ingredients. I'll definitely be making this again.
