If using a frozen pie crust, you'll need to let it defrost on the counter for about 10 minutes, then prick the crust with a fork (this keeps the crust from getting too puffy while baking).
Then bake it using the instructions on the back of your package (usually 400F degrees for about 10-12 minutes).
Allow crust to cool slightly. Turn oven down to 350F degrees.
Start layering tomato slices on the bottom of the pie. Season with freshly ground black pepper.
Then top with green onions, basil and crumbled bacon.
In a bowl, combine mayonnaise with shredded cheese.
Spread the cheese mixture on top of the pie.
Bake at 350F degrees for about 30-35 minutes (until golden brown). If the edges of the pie crust are becoming too brown while baking, you may want to put some aluminum foil around the edges of the pie, just covering the crust for the duration of baking.
Allow to cool for a few minutes then slice and serve!

This pie is tasty served warm but is still yummy as it comes to room temperature as well. Just be sure to refrigerate any leftovers.
