📝 Ingredients

• 2 cups cherry tomatoes (red, yellow, and/or orange)
• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 loaf French bread (large enough to get about 18-20 slices when cut)
• olive oil (for sprinkling)
• pepper (for sprinkling)
• 1 cup Ricotta cheese
• 2 tsp basil (dried)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
2. 2Pour tomatoes in a foil-lined baking dish, and sprinkle with salt and olive oil. Roast for 35 minutes, or until tomatoes have burst and begun to shrink.
3. 3Place all slices of French bread on a large baking sheet. Drizzle each slice with a little bit of olive oil (about 1/4 tsp on each) and sprinkle each with a little bit of pepper (this is for flavoring and a little goes a long way). Allow to toast in the 400 degree oven for 3-4 minutes, or until the bread is just turning golden brown. Allow to cool for a couple of minutes.
4. 4Spread a bit of Ricotta cheese on each slice of bread. Top with a couple roasted tomatoes and sprinkle with dried basil.
5. 5Serve immediately.
6. 6Enjoy!
