How to make
-
STEP 1
Heat oven to 450°F.

STEP 2
Place flour in large bowl; cut in butter with pastry blender or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Mix in enough cold water with fork until flour is moistened. Shape into ball.
-
STEP 3
Roll out pastry on lightly floured surface into 12-inch circle. Place into ungreased 9- or 10-inch tart pan with removable bottom or pie pan. Press firmly onto bottom and up side of pan. Cut away excess pastry; prick all over with fork. Bake 11-14 minutes or until golden brown.

STEP 4
Meanwhile, heat oil in 10-inch skillet until hot; add tomatoes, zucchini, bell pepper, and garlic. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, 5-6 minutes or until vegetables are tender and liquid is evaporated. Stir in basil and olives.

STEP 5
Spoon tomato mixture evenly into baked pastry shell; sprinkle with cheese and pine nuts. Bake 10-12 minutes or until filling is hot and cheese is melted. Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Cut into wedges. Serve warm or cold. Cover; store refrigerated.
