I love this time of year when fresh herbs are growing outside. The aroma of basil beckons, causing me to pluck a few leaves. I rack my brain wondering how I can incorporate them into lunch. I see the gluten free Udi's Bagels sitting on the counter along with a bunch or grape tomatoes. Of course! A bagel pizza of sorts.
Not wanting to overpower the delicate basil flavor with a tomato sauce, I decide on a bit of olive oil instead.
1 gluten free bagel
1 TBS olive oil, flavored is nice
5-6 grape tomatoes
Fresh grated parmesan cheese
Mozzarella cheese
Fresh basil leaves
1-2 garlic cloves
Pour olive oil in small glass container. If using plain olive oil, mince 1 garlic clove and add to oil for extra flavor. Brush each side of bagel with oil, sprinkle liberally with cheeses-can also add feta for variety. Add sliced tomatoes and basil leaves. Top with very thin slices of garlic, more cheese and a drizzle more of olive oil, if desired. Broil in oven a few minutes, or until cheese is melted.
