So my wonderful future sister in law gave me the idea to post recipes on my blog... so here I am. And hey, cooking is part of being a wife and mommy so it totally makes sense right?!?!?! I'll start super simple today....
A quick, easy and pretty yummy lunch... Ciabatta Caprese Sandwich
1 loaf of Ciabatta bread
1 ball of fresh mozzarella (approx 1 lb), 1/4- 1/2 inche thick slices
1 large tomato or 2 medium, 1/4-1/2 inch thick slices
1 bunch basil
Drizzle of basil infused evoo or just plain evoo
1 tsp dried oregano
Oven set to broil. Slice the loaf of bread down the middle length ways to open up the loaf. On a half tray (baking sheet) drizzle with oil and put under the broiler just to slightly toast it. Take out the bread. on one half of the loaf arrange tomato slices and basil leaves alternating between the two and slightly overlapping each other. On the other side of the loaf arrange the fresh mozzarella slices and basil leaves the same way as the tomatoes. drizzle each half with a little more oil and sprinkle on the dried oregano. Return the tray to the oven and allow the mozzarella to melt and slightly brown, the tomatoes will roast as well. After a few minutes under the broiler (depending on the power of your oven) pull out the tray. Put the top of loaf on the bottom, slice up and enjoy a delicious and simple Caprese Sandwich... a mixed green salad with a balsamic vinaigrette is the perfect side.... Enjoy....
Will keep the recipes coming if you are enjoying it.... please leave feedback!
