1/2 cup fresh grated or shaved Parmesan
3 T chopped fresh basil, plus more for garnish
4-6 garden tomatoes, sliced
1/4 red onion, sliced really thin
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper

Add layer of tomatoes and onions, seasoning well throughout with salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil. Add remaining mozzarella and Parmesan. Bake 25 minutes.
