This recipe is a crispy complement to any Italian entree. I started with my grandmother's recipe and just added fresh tomatoes.Jean Franzoni, Rutland, Vermont Ingredients:
1/4 cup olive oil |
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil |
3 to 4 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon pepper |
4 medium tomatoes, diced |
2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese |
1 loaf (1 pound) unsliced french bread |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine oil, basil, garlic, salt and pepper. Add tomatoes and toss gently. Sprinkle with cheese. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
2. Bring to room temperature before serving. Cut bread into 24 slices; toast under broiler until lightly browned. Top with tomato mixture. Serve immediately. Yield: 12 servings.
