For a richer flavor, use full-fat mayonnaise instead of fat-free. Experiment with different types of cheese, such as provolone or Gruyere. Add a pinch of red pepper flakes for a touch of heat. If you don't have fresh basil, you can substitute 1 tablespoon of dried basil. Make sure to drain the tomatoes well to prevent a soggy pie. For a crispier crust, blind bake the pie crust before adding the filling.
