GRILLED HEIRLOOM TOMATO, RICOTTA, AND BOCCONCINI FLATBREAD
I remember making a "Boboli" pizza with pretty tomatoes, Mozzarella, basil, and Garlic with my girlfriend Julie once many - many years ago. For some reason I still remember it, and came up with this recipe last summer when I had these beautiful heirloom tomatoes and basil plants in my mini-garden...it also started around the same time my affair with fresh Ricotta cheese began :)

Steps:
- Using a mortal and pestal or a mulling stick, mix the oil and garlic together well. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Brush over the flatbread rounds, both sides.
- Spread the Ricotta cheese on each bread round and continue to layer the tomato, bocconcini (baby fresh mozzarella balls), and basil leaves on the pizza. I prefer to use two colors of tomato for a variety of color and taste.
- Cook on a hot grill for about 3-4 minutes. I like to place aluminum foil under the bread rounds and close the grill to help with the cooking process on both sides.
- Cut into pieces and garnish with some shavings of fresh Parmesan Cheese.
