Here is a fine appetizer and a different take on bruschetta. It still has the tomatoes you love but adds some cheddar to make it a creamier finger food that melts in your mouth. I served it to my guests and family and they really enjoyed it. There were no leftovers so make a double batch if you have a really big crowd. Served hot from the oven makes this one you can serve any time of year. Makes two dozen of the French baguette size but if your French bread slices are larger it will make one dozen. Enjoy. ChefDLH. Ingredients:
24 slices french bread (3/4 inch thick) |
2 medium tomatoes, seeded and chopped |
2/3 cup cheddar cheese, shredded |
1/3 cup mayonnaise |
1/4 cup parmesan cheese, grated |
1 teaspoon oregano, dried |
1/2 teaspoon basil, dried |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
Directions:
1. Place bread slices on ungreased baking sheets.
2. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 5 minutes on each side, or until toasted.
3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine tomatoes, cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, parmesan cheese, dried oregano, dried basil and pepper.
4. Spread mixture over toasted bread.
