Toasted Bruschetta

• 4-6 thinly sliced pieces of sourdough bread
• 1 T. butter
• 1-2 ripe medium tomatoes, sliced thinly
• 2-3 slices marinated buffalo mozzarella per slice of bread

Slather both sides of each slice of bread with butter. Heat a nonstick, oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat and place the slices of bread in the skillet. Cook for 4 minutes before flipping each slice of bread and cooking an additional 3 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat.

Layer tomato slices on the bread, making sure to mostly cover the top of the bread. Add enough slices of marinated buffalo mozzarella to each slice of bread to mostly cover the slices of tomato. You can use store-brought marinated buffalo mozzarella or make your own.

Place the skillet with the assembled bruschetta under the broiler for 2-3 minutes or until the cheese is melted and a little bubbly. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
