When my tomatoes conspire to ripen all at once, I use them up in simple recipes like this one. Cheesy baguette pizzas, served with a salad, make an ideal lunch. Ingredients:
3 cups sliced fresh mushrooms |
2 medium onions, sliced |
2 teaspoons olive oil |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 teaspoon italian seasoning |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
dash pepper |
1 french bread baguette (10-1/2 ounces), halved lengthwise |
1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, divided |
3/4 cup thinly sliced fresh basil leaves, divided |
3 medium tomatoes, sliced |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400°. In a large skillet, saute mushrooms and onions in oil until tender. Add garlic, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper; cook 1 minute. 2. Place baguette halves on a baking sheet; sprinkle with 3/4 cup cheese. Top with 1/2 cup basil, mushroom mixture, tomatoes and remaining cheese. 3. Bake 10-15 minutes or until cheese is melted. Sprinkle with remaining basil. Cut each portion into three slices. Yield: 6 servings. |
