Cover and blend on high speed for 15 seconds until smooth and well combined.
-
Pour the liquid mixture evenly over the onion and bacon layers in the pie plate.

In a small bowl, mix the dried savory, basil, and parsley leaves. Crush slightly between your fingers to release oils.

Let cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
