Ingredients

  • 12 slices (1/2 inch thick) French bread
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 medium tomato, seeded, diced (3/4 cup)
  • 2 tablespoons sliced pimiento-stuffed green olives
  • 2 tablespoons sliced ripe olives
  • 2 tablespoons diced bell pepper
  • 2 green onions, sliced (2 tablespoons)
  • 1 tablespoon Italian dressing
  • 4 large fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 375°F. On ungreased cookie sheet, arrange bread slices. In small bowl, mix oil and garlic; brush on bread. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until dry and toasted. Set aside to cool.
  • 2
    In medium bowl, mix remaining ingredients except basil and cheese. With slotted spoon, spoon tomato mixture evenly on toasts. Top with basil and cheese.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Here's an easy way to thinly slice a bunch of basil leaves all at once: Stack the leaves and roll lengthwise into a tight roll, then cut across the roll.
  • tip 2
    The toasts can be made 2 or 3 days ahead and stored at room temperature. Create the tomato mixture a day ahead and refrigerate. Wait to slice the basil until the last minute so it doesn’t turn dark.
