Tomato Tart

I made this for a BBQ get together at a friends house and it was gone in seconds! It's super easy and is very "Showy"

1 package frozen puff pastry sheets
3 large ripe tomatoes, thinly sliced
salt and pepper to taste
1 (4oz) package feta cheese crumbles
1 (4oz) package blue cheese crumbles
1 garlic clove minced
2 tbs of Italian seasoning mix
1-2 tbs olive oil

Thaw and roll out both sheets of puff pastry to approx 14 x 14 squares. Cut one square into 4 equal strips. Using cold water as "Glue" make a border around the full square with the strips.
bake at 400 for 10-15 min or until golden brown.
Slice tomatoes and place on paper towels and sprinkle with salt to help drain juices. Let stand 20 min or so.
Sprinkle feta cheese first then blue cheese on the baked tart shell, layer the tomatoes in a nice even pattern they can overlap. Then layer the garlic, cracked pepper, and Italian seasoning. Drizzle the olive oil and return to oven at 400 for 15 min or until cheese melts.

This is a great side dish or a main course for a light dinner or nice lunch.
