Fabulous! My teenage daughter said it tasted like veggie pizza, and had 2 big pieces. The presentation is beautiful, and I would serve this at a formal brunch. We enjoyed it as a dinner side-dish. Just terrific. I wouldn't change a thing. Don't miss this one, before the fresh summer vegetables are gone.08/23/08

This was really delicious and makes for a nice presentation, esp. in a square tart pan. I think the secret is to slice the vegetables thinly. Also, I used full-fat mayonnaise for a richer flavor and added chopped kalemata olives. I also made my own pie crust which makes a big difference to the overall result, I think. Very good!12/27/07
