A lovely Sunday afternoon appey! I toasted the bread first under the boiler, then placed slice of tomato on top, my tomatoes were not smooshie enough, then sprinkled garlic and olive oil, and sprinkled some salt and pepper over, put them under the broiled again just to heat the tomato a bit. Also did some with swiss cheese melted on top. Very tasty, thanks for posting, I will make these again.

Made for ZWT 5 Famly picks, the Dining Daredevils. I love this recipe, it is so good. I did use one very large garlic cloves, which was a good thing. I didn't have any Spanish olive oil, so Ileft that out, but it was fantastic anyhow.

I rubbed then placed a slice of tomato on each slice of bread. I can`t see hoe you can rub 2 whole tomatoes into the 4 slices of bread? I used only 1/2 tomato. I did top it with garlic and fresh cracked pepper. Made for ZWT5 Thanks.
