My Mom, Karen, brought these to a party at my house once and they were delicious. I'm not sure where she got the recipe from, but it's a keeper! She made it lower fat, but you can use regular fat ingredients. Enjoy!

Time 20m

Yield 18-24 crostinis

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup light mozzarella cheese, shredded
1/2 cup half fat mayonnaise (I use Hellmann's)
2 roma tomatoes, seeded and diced small
1 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon dried basil, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 -2 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 whole grain baguette, cut into 18 - 24 1/4-inch slices

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients except for the baguette slices, until well blended. Spread cheese mixture evenly on one side of each baguette slice.
  • Place slices, cheese side up, on a grill topper (a nonstick flat grate that has many holes). Grill, with lid down, over low heat on barbeque for 3 to 5 minutes, or until bread is is lightly toasted and cheese is melted.
  • These can also be baked in the oven at 350F or broiled, until lightly browned.
