Briefly heating the tomatoes intensifies their sweetness while preserving their bright, fresh flavor. Use any variety of small summer tomatoes you find at the market; for a gorgeous look, mix tomato colors and shapes, such as yellow and orange pear tomatoes paired with red grape tomatoes.
I love how quick and easy this appetizer is to make, and guests always love it.
the only gripe is that if I plate it on the bread, it tends to get a bit soggy.
I have served warm and cold and love both options.
Read MoreThis recipe turned out pretty good for me. I served this as an appetizer. 10 minutes seemed like a long time to heat the tomato mixture and after 8 minutes my basil was not looking anything like the uncooked basil in photo. The flavor was perfect. The bread grilled in a little olive oil was also very good.

Read MoreThis was a great way to use up a ton of grape tomatoes from our garden. I preferred to blanch the tomatoes first to remove the skins (they separate right in the pan and I just pull them out with a fork). Delicious, would be great appetizer for company.
