This recipe dresses up store bought focaccia and is presented layered with a gooey cheese filling. Taken from the BH&G magazine. Ingredients:
8 ounces brie cheese (1 round) |
1 (14 ounce) can artichoke hearts, water packed, drained and chopped |
4 slices bacon, cooked, drained & crumbled |
1 loaf italian focaccia bread, round loaf about 2 inches thick |

Directions:
1. Split focaccia (to make a top and bottom, like a sandwich). 2. Place focaccia in a warm oven and heat just until crisp; remove and set aside. 3. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. 4. Trim and discard rind from cheese; cut cheese into large pieces. 5. Place in a medium microwave-safe bowl; microwave on high for 30 to 45 seconds or until cheese begins to melt. 6. Stir in artichoke hearts and bacon. 7. Microwave cheese mixture on high for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until heated through, stirring once or twice. 8. Spread mixture on focaccia bottom. 9. Place focaccia top over mixture. 10. Place on baking sheet. 11. Bake, uncovered, 8 to 10 minutes or until heated through. 12. Cut into 4 x 1 inch strips or wedges. Garnish with rosemary if desired. |
