  13. Arrange tomato slices evenly on top of mayo/cheese. Sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder and 1/8 teaspoon sea salt.
  14. Carefully pull up, fold, and pleat pie dough around the edges of the veggie layers to create rustic sides for the pie.
  15. Pick up parchment paper with rustic pie on it and place on the cookie sheet.
