Instructions

- Lay out one sheet of fillo pastry, brush lightly with melted butter, and repeat with remaining sheets, stacking them to create a thick base
- Spread the ricotta cheese in the center of the pastry stack, leaving a 2-inch border around the edges
- Top the ricotta with the sliced tomatoes and sprinkle with shredded mozzarella, dried oregano, salt, and pepper
- Fold the edges of the fillo pastry over the filling to create a rustic crust, brushing the exposed pastry with any remaining melted butter

- Remove from oven, drizzle with olive oil, and let cool for 5 minutes before slicing.
