Ingredients

1 loaf day old country bread
6 whole canned tomatoes
6 roughly torn basil leaves
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, peeled

Directions

Preheat a grill or grill pan.

Slice your bread thickly, and place slices on a dry grill to brown, about 30 seconds on both sides. Take canned tomatoes, place on cutting board, and slice. Add the basil to the canned tomatoes in a large bowl. Add olive oil and season with black pepper, to taste.

Remove carmelized bread from grill and rub each side with cloves of garlic. Top with spoonfuls of mixture and serve immediately.

So easy, we make it at least a couple times per week. Also, just toasted bread and used canned diced tomatoes. Yummy!

Quick and easy
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I loved this and it did last for several days. I used diced canned tomatoes and roasted/baked garlic that I spread on the... bread instead of fresh and it was really yummy. I drizzled the top with the olive oil instead of adding it to the misture along with a small drizzle of balsimic vinegar.Read more
