Ingredients

7 sheets phyllo dough (14 inches x 9 inches)
1/3 cup olive oil
7 tablespoons crumbled goat cheese
1 cup thinly sliced sweet onion
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded fontina cheese
4 plum tomatoes, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons minced chives
1 tablespoon minced fresh basil or 1 teaspoon dried basil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with oil and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon goat cheese. (Keep remaining phyllo covered with plastic wrap and a damp towel to prevent it from drying out.) Repeat layers, brushing oil all the way to edges.
Sprinkle onion over top to within 1 in. of edges; sprinkle with fontina cheese. Arrange tomato slices in a slightly overlapping pattern over fontina cheese. Sprinkle with chives, basil, salt and pepper. Bring up edges of tart over filling.
Bake at 375° for 30-35 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Yield: 12 servings.
