If you grow your own produce, I highly recommend using garden-fresh tomatoes and basil for this recipe. This simple yet satisfying meal makes the perfect lunch or appetizer. Easy to make and quick to devour, this seasonal snack will make its way into your weekly rotation in no time!

4 slices whole-wheat bread, toasted
4 ounces mozzarella cheese, sliced

¼ cup loosely packed whole basil leaves
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Sea salt, to season
Black pepper, to season
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar glaze

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place the toasted bread on a serving platter. Top each bread slice with a slice of mozzarella and some tomatoes, basil, and oregano.
2. Season with salt and pepper, and drizzle each serving with ½ tablespoon of balsamic vinegar glaze. Serve immediately
