Chive Croute With Tomato And Cheese

Type: Cheese, Eggs
Courses: Starters and appetizers
Serves: 2 people

Recipe Ingredients

2   Round cheese bread
  Butter
2   Ripe tomato slices (large)
2 tablespoons 30mlFresh chives - chopped
2   Cheddar - mozzarella or Swiss
  Salt and pepper - to taste

Recipe Instructions

*Enough cheese to cover the tomatoes.

Lightly toast cheese bread (don't brown). Butter bread and top each slice with tomato slice. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle about 1 tsp chives on top of each.

Top with cheese. Place a few inches under a preheated broiler; broil until cheese is melted and bubbling. Top croutes with remaining chives and serve at once.

Enright suggests serving this as a snack or with soup for a light lunch. She also suggests that, if serving this for brunch, a poached egg be put atop each tomato before topping with the other ingredients.
