This meal or appetizer is warm, comforting, and sophisticated. It’s a great way to take advantage of those cherry tomatoes you have sitting on the counter. I mean, I’m always a sucker for classic olive oil, garlic, and S&P on tomatoes.
Ingredients:
Cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
Olive Oil
Garlic Cloves
Salt & Pepper
Ricotta cheese
Loaf of Mulitgrain Bread
* There are no approximations or quantities here. But trust me, you can do it.
Directions:
Preset oven to 350. Put split cherry tomatoes and garlic cloves in a shallow baking dish. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Bake for 20-30 minutes until tender, but not over-done.
Slice and toast pieces of multigrain bread. Spread some ricotta cheese on and then top with the warm tomatoes and garlic.
This would work with any roasted tomato, really. Mmmm, Roma tomatoes quartered would be heartier, but yummmm…
