Method
Crust: In food processor, chop melba toasts to make 1-1/4 cups (300 mL) fine crumbs. Add butter, Parmesan cheese and egg whites; pulse until moistened. Press onto bottom and halfway up side of 9-inch (23 cm) round tart pan with removable bottom. Bake in centre of 350°F (180°C) oven until golden and firm to the touch, about 20 minutes. Let cool on rack. (Make-ahead: Cover and store at room temperature for up to 24 hours.)
Cut red, yellow and orange tomatoes and bocconcini into (1/8)-inch (3 mm) thick slices. Arrange bocconcini over prepared crust. Sprinkle with one-third of the basil. Top with concentric circles of tomatoes, overlapping slightly and sprinkling salt, pepper and remaining basil between rows.
