Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place tomatoes in a colander in the sink in one layer; sprinkle with salt; allow to drain for 10 minutes. Use a paper towel to pat-dry the tomatoes and make sure most of the excess juice is gone. You don't want wet and juicy tomatoes or the pie will turn out soggy.
Layer the tomato slices, basil and onion in pie shell; season with salt and pepper.
Combine the cheeses and mayonnaise together; spread mixture on top of the tomatoes; sprinkle Parmesan cheese on top.
Bake for 30 minutes or until lightly browned.
Cut into slices. Serve warm.
6 servings.
*if using a raw pie dough, pre-bake it in the pie pan, following the directions on the pie crust package. Then add the tomato pie ingredients and bake again. If the crust starts to get too brown, put some tinfoil around the outside crust while the pie bakes.
