List of Ingredients
1/2 of an 8-ounce loaf baguette-style French bread
3/4 cup yellow or red cherry tomatoes and/or grape tomatoes
2 ounces fresh mozzarella cheese, cubed
1/4 cup coarsely chopped cucumber
2 thin slices red onion, separated into rings
1 tablespoon snipped fresh mint
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves
Recipe
1. Cut the French bread in half crosswise. Cut a thin horizontal slice from the top of each portion; set aside. Using a paring knife, carefully remove bread from the center of each portion, leaving a 1/4-inch shell. Reserve the center pieces of bread for another use.
2. Quarter cherry tomatoes; halve grape tomatoes. In a medium bowl combine the tomatoes, mozzarella cheese, cucumber, onion, mint, vinegar, oil, salt, and white pepper. Line bottoms of bread shells with basil leaves. Fill with tomato mixture. Replace bread tops. Wrap each sandwich in plastic wrap and chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Makes 2 servings.
