Ingredients
-
7 -8 anchovy fillets (1 small tin)
-
4 garlic cloves
-
1 medium tomatoes, fresh, chopped
-
salt & pepper
-
6 drops hot sauce (Peri-Peri Tabasco, your favorite)
-
6 teaspoons asiago cheese or 6 teaspoons parmesan cheese, grated
-
8 sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, well drained
-
3 tablespoons lite olive oil
-
3 tablespoons lite olive oil or 3 tablespoons virgin olive oil
Instructions
- Slice the bread and very lightly paint with the olive oil and toast (dry) the slices in the oven 300°F for approx 20 minutes or until the slices are crisp dried.
- I do this well in advance and keep the dried toasts in an air tight container so you always have some on hand, or you can buy ready made ones.
- In your food processor or hand held chopper attachment put in: sun dried tomatoes, anchovies,garlic salt& pepper, and hot sauce.
- Chop until you have a very fine spreadable mixture, let stand for at least 1/2 hour.
- I make mine up a few hours in advance.
- Spread the mixture on the dry toasts.
- Top with fresh chopped tomato.
- Sprinkle with cheese of your choice.
- Place in 375°F oven for approx 15 minutes or until heated through and the cheese is golden.
