Crostini

These make a great appetizer or a side dish with pasta.

6 oz cream cheese
1 clove garlic, minced
2 Tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
2 Tablespoons basil
1 cup diced tomatoes
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Optional: 1 cup chopped black olives

Directions:

Mix EVOO and garlic. Spread over one side of bread. Bake 8 - 10 minutes at 400. Cool for 10 minutes. Mix cream cheese, Parmesan, (and black olives). Spread over bread. Top with tomatoes, basil, and mozzarella cheese. Return to oven for about 5 minutes, until cheese melts.

6 servings.
