These were a huge hit this weekend among my house guest.
It's simply mozzarella, tomato and basil wedged between pieces of toasted bread.
Here's the recipe:
Ingredients:
24 slices white country bread
6 tbsp olive oil
9oz mozzarella cheese cut into small slices
6 ripe plum tomatoes cut into small slices
fresh basil leaves
salt and black pepper
chopped parsley leaves (garnish)
1. Preheat the over to 425 degrees. Trim the crust from the bread (I left some of them on because it looked yummy) and slice into four equal squares. Arrange on the baking sheet and brush with olive oil. Bake about 5 minutes or until a pale gold color.
2. Remove the bread from the oven and begin to stack starting with a square of bread, then a slice of mozzarella, slice of tomato and a basil leaf. Repeat, ending with another piece of bread. Push a skewer (or toothpick) through the stack.
3. Finish all the stack and return them to the baking sheet and bake for about another 10 minutes or until the cheese starts to melt.
4. Garnish with parsley flakes.
