Ingredients

  • 18 slices Italian bread, 1/2 inch thick
  • 2 large tomatoes, diced (2 cups)
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 jar (7 ounces) roasted red bell peppers, drained and chopped
  • 1/3 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps

  • 1
    Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat. Grill bread uncovered 4 to 6 inches from medium heat 4 to 6 minutes, turning once, until golden brown.
  • 2
    Mix tomatoes, basil, vinegar, salt and bell peppers. Spread tomato mixture on bread. Top each slice with about 1 teaspoon cheese.
  • 3
    Cover and grill 4 to 6 inches from medium heat about 5 minutes or until cheese is melted. Serve hot.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    You can use provolone cheese instead of mozzarella.
  • tip 2
    Prepare the tomato topping and grill the bread several hours ahead if you are entertaining. Just before serving, spread the topping on the crostini and grill as directed.
