Ingredients

  • 1 18" French baguette or flatbread about 8" X 16"
  • cup Blue Cheese salad dressing See Notes.
  • 1 cup shredded Mozzarella cheese
  • 1 large tomato diced finely

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 if using baguette. Slice baguette into 1" slices. Toast them in the oven on a baking sheet for about 10 minutes to crisp them up. Remove baguette slices and set aside. If you are using flatbread skip this step.
  • Set oven to broil. Position top rack on second level from broiler element.
  • Brush baguette slices or flat bread with blue cheese. You can also use the back of a spoon to spread it.
  • Chop tomato finely. I set mine in a sieve while I am distributing the cheese so excess juice drains away. (It doesn't take long). While tomato is draining distribute mozzarella evenly over bread. Top with diced tomato.
  • Broil about 3 minutes just until mozzarella is melted and bubbly. Watch carefully so it doesn't burn.

Notes

Note:  You could substitute Ranch dressing for the Blue Cheese.
