Brush a rectangular baking sheet lightly with some of the butter. Lay 1 sheet of the phyllo on the the butter; brush lightly with some of the butter. Sprinkle the phyllo with 1 T. of the Parmesan; lay another sheet of the phyllo on top and press it firmly so that it adheres to the bottom sheet. Butter, sprinkle and layer the remaining phyllo in the same manner, ending with a sheet of phyllo and reserving the remaining 1 T.
of Parmesan. Sprinkle the top sheet of phyllo with the mozzarella, scatter the onion evenly on top and arrange the tomatoes in one layer over the onion. Sprinkle the pizza with the reserved 1 T.
