Ingredients
  

  • 4 slices of bread
  • 250 grams cherry tomatoes
  • 4 leaves of fresh basil
  • oregano
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • salt
  • 1 clove garlic optional

Instructions
 

  • Cut the cherry tomatoes into 6-8 pieces and place them in a bowl. Add a pinch of salt, oregano, and shredded basil leaves. Drizzle some olive oil in the mix. Let rest for half an hour.
  • Toast the slices of bread in the oven (grill mode 200°C) for 5-8 minutes, turning over the slices halfway. The slices need to be nice and toasted from the top but still soft from the middle, so regulate the cooking time accordingly.
  • When the slices are toasted, rub the garlic clove gently on each slice and drizzle some olive oil on the slices. (The garlic is optional.)
  • Add the tomato mix on each slice and garnish with additional basil leaves if you wish. Serve warm.
