Ingredients

  • 4 slices bread any kind you prefer
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup tomato sauce
  • 4 teaspoons basil chopped
  • 4 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese
  • 1 cup arugula substitute fresh spinach

Method

  1. Melt the butter in the microwave or sauce pan. Set aside.
  2. Toast your bread slices. Brush them with melted butter after they are toasted.
  3. To each piece of toast, add a tablespoon of tomato sauce, 1 teaspoon of sliced basil, then the fresh mozzarella on top.  Place the assembled pizza toasts on a sheet pan, place on an even layer.
  4. Place the sheet pan on a center rack in the oven. Broil on low heat for 4-5 minutes, until the mozzarella cheese has melted and begins to brown and bubble. Keep an eye on the toasts, as they can burn quickly under the broiler, so pay attention after 4 minutes until the toasts are ready.
  5. Remove toasts from the oven, and top with fresh arugula.  Enjoy!
