    Olive Garden's Smoked Mozzarella Fonduta

    1 loaf Italian bread, such as ciabatta or semolina, sliced into 1/4
    inch slices
    1 cup sour cream
    3 cups shredded smoked mozzarella cheese
    3 cups shredded provolone cheese
    3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
    3 tablespoons grated Romano cheese
    8 teaspoons fresh diced tomatoes
    Fresh chopped parsley

    Arrange sliced Italian bread flat on a baking sheet and cover with
    foil. Set aside until ready to use.

    Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.

    Combine sour cream, thyme, red pepper, cayenne pepper and four
    cheeses in a large bowl and blend thoroughly.

    If serving family-style, spray an 8" x 10" casserole dish with pan
    spray, then use a spatula to transfer the cheese mixture. For
    individual servings, spray eight individual heat-resistant serving
    bowls, such as soufflé cups, with pan spray and fill each with cheese
    mixture. Place individual bowls on a baking sheet.

    Using a large spoon, spread cheese mixture to create an even
    surface. Place casserole dish or baking sheet with individual bowls
    on center rack in oven.

    After five minutes, place baking sheet with bread, still covered,
    on top rack in oven. Bake for an additional five minutes. Remove
    bread and fonduta from oven.

    Garnish casserole dish with diced tomatoes and parsley in center of
    fonduta or divide evenly among smaller bowls. Arrange bread slices
    around bowl's and serve immediately.
