STEPS
Gather all ingredients. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Bake pie crust in preheated oven until firm, about 8 minutes. Remove crust from the oven and set aside. Reduce oven to 350°F (175°C).
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, bell pepper, mushrooms, and zucchini and cook, stirring, until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove vegetables from skillet and set aside.
Sprinkle tomato slices with flour and basil; cook in the skillet over medium heat for 1 minute per side. Set aside.
Whisk eggs, milk, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl.
Spread 1 cup cheese in the bottom of pie crust. Layer vegetable mixture over the cheese, then top with tomato slices. Pour egg mixture over top and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes.
Cool 5 minutes before serving.
