Ingredients
  • 2 Boboli bread shells, 6" dia
  • (or similar Italian flat bread)
  • 2 tbl freshly-grated Parmesan cheese
  • TOMATO-BASIL TOPPING
  • 1 1/2 cup seeded diced Roma tomatoes
  • 1 tbl chopped fresh basil
  • 1 tbl extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • GARLIC OIL
  • 1 garlic clove cut thin slices
  • 2 tbl extra-virgin olive oil

Directions
  1. For Tomato-Basil Topping: Blend all ingredients thoroughly and refrigerate for 2 hours before serving. Just prior to serving, drain in a colander or strainer to eliminate excess liquid.
  2. For Garlic Oil: Let a thinly-sliced clove of garlic soak in 2 tablespoons olive oil for at least 1 hour before using to allow the flavor to infuse.
  3. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  4. Line a sheet pan or cookie sheet with foil. Dribble garlic oil over Boboli, sprinkle with cheese and bake for 4 to 5 minutes, until hot, but not crisped or dried.
  5. Cut the Boboli into 6 wedges or 2- by 2-inch squares. Remove to a serving plate and cover, generously, with the cold Tomato-Basil Topping, serve immediately

Love this. Would never have thought to use a boboli for crustini. Thanks.


Sounds great! Boboli would definitely be a nice change from our usual Italian bread - this is on my 'must try' list!


Fantastic! Love your recipes
