Author Notes
The inspiration for this tart came from the bounty of colorful veggies in my garden and the ingredients on hand in my fridge. The cool thing about this recipe is you make the filling and top it with whatever veggies you have on hand. —Cheryl Warth

Top the filling with the veggies. Starting with the larger slices and closest to the rim of the pie plate alternate and slightly overlap the veggies going around in a circle. End with the smaller slices in the center.

In a small bowl mix the breadcrumbs, parmessan, parsely and olive oil. Sprinkle over the top of the veggies.
