Ingredients

• 1 pinch salt
• 1 pinch ground black pepper
• ½ teaspoon dried oregano
• 1 clove garlic, chopped
• ½ teaspoon dried basil
• 1 French baguette
• 1 onion, minced
• 3 tomatoes, seeded and chopped
• 8 ounces mozzarella cheese

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

Step 2

In a small mixing bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, garlic, basil, oregano, and salt and pepper. Mix well, cover, and refrigerate.

Step 3

Cut the loaf of French bread into 12 slices on the diagonal. Arrange the bread on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Reduce the oven's temperature to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).

Step 4

Spoon equal amounts of the tomato mixture onto the toasted slices of bread. Top with slices of mozzarella. Place the pan of bread back into the oven until the cheese has melted just slightly and is oozing over the tomatoes, approximately 2 minutes. Serve immediately.
