Caprese salad on grilled baquette



There is no better combination than tomato, cheese, basil and bread. It also is a must have during the summer. This dish is so simple and full of flavor. There is not a single person who is not impressed with this. This time I chose to grill the bread because it is gives it that lightly toasted taste but doesn't make the bread too hard. My sister and I were just talking about how much we hate when the bread rips up the inside of your mouth and for days you are regretting that broiled bread. 


Try this recipe and please let me know what you think.

Ingredients

1 Roma tomato sliced
6 basil leaves sliced
fresh mozzarella
1/2 cup olive oil
1 baguette sliced
salt and pepper

Directions

Slice tomatoes to desired thickness. Slice mozzarella to desired thickness. roll leaves and thinly slice them. Heat grill on high. brush each side with olive oil. Place bread on the grill for about 2 minutes on each side. Once they have grill marks they are done. Usually doesn't take long when grill is on high. Top bread with tomato, cheese and then brush again with olive oil, lightly salt and pepper and then sprinkle with basil strips.
