Cooking Instructions

step 1

Dice the Roma Tomatoes (2 cups) and slice the Fresh Mozzarella Cheese Ball (1 1/3 cups) into small pieces, about the size of a thick coin. Chiffonade the Fresh Basil Leaves (12). Mince the Garlic (3 cloves).

step 2

Heat Olive Oil (1 Tbsp) in a small frying pan over medium heat. When hot, add the minced garlic and saute for 3-4 minutes stirring frequently, until the garlic is a light golden color.

step 3

Empty the garlic and oil into a medium mixing bowl.

step 4

Add the diced tomatoes, mozzarella, and basil to the mixing bowl. Add the Balsamic Vinegar (1 Tbsp), Salt (1/2 tsp), and Ground Black Pepper (1/4 tsp) and mix thoroughly. Set the bowl aside while you prepare the bread.

step 5

Place an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat the broiler on high. Slice the Baguette (1/2) and spread the slices on a cookie sheet in a single layer. Melt the Unsalted Butter (4 Tbsp) and brush lightly over each piece of bread.

step 6

Toast the bread under the broiler for 4-5 minutes or until the edges of the bread are golden-brown, but keep a close eye on it so it doesn’t burn. Remove the tray and place the bread on a serving plate.

step 7

Serve immediately. You’ll hardly be able to resist.
