1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil |
1 lb mixed summer squash (zucchini, yellow squash and pattypan, cut into 1/4-inch rounds) |
2 shallots, thinly sliced |
2 teaspoons fresh thyme or 2 teaspoons fresh marjoram, chopped |
1 teaspoon chopped garlic |
fresh ground black pepper |
1 refrigerated pie crust (from a 15-ounce box) |
4 ounces roquefort cheese (or other good-quality blue cheese) or 4 ounces gorgonzola (or other good-quality blue cheese) |
1 roasted yellow peppers (freshly roasted or from a jar) or 1 red pepper (freshly roasted or from a jar) |
1 large plum tomato, sliced and seeds removed |
