Grilled Caprese Bruschetta

Steps

• 1

  Preheat oven to 350°F. Bake bread according to package directions and allow to cool before slicing. (This step can be done ahead of time.)
• 2

  Cut bread, cheese, and tomatoes into 16 slices each. Select 16 basil leaves; remove stems. Set all ingredients aside.
• 3

  Brush olive oil lightly over both sides of each bread slice. Preheat grill to medium-high heat and place bread slices on grill, baking each side until light grill marks appear (about 2 minutes per side).
• 4

  Reduce grill heat to low (or turn grill off). On each bread slice, place a slice of cheese, basil leaf and tomato slice. When all are assembled, sprinkle with seasoning (salt and pepper or garlic pepper), then drizzle with balsamic vinegar. Close grill lid and heat appetizers until cheese begins to melt. Remove from grill and serve immediately.
