Similar to a quiche, this gluten-free tomato tart recipe is rich enough to serve as an entree. It works equally well as a side dish, served with a light poultry or fish dinner. The gluten-free tart crust is easy to work with and has a rich, buttery flavor. This recipe is an adaptation of Tomato Zucchini Tart, which appears in The Tomato Cookbook by Victoria Lloyd-Davies.
