Tomato Feta Bread


So a few months ago I fell in love with feta cheese. :) I had it on pizza and realized I REALLY like it on pizza.... and I really like it on salad; greek salad's are great.... and when I saw recently on a local pizza place's menu "tomato feta bread" I just had to try it out.. and I thought it would be like breadsticks, but it was like a garlic bread loaf cut in half & covered in lots of wonderful spices, mozzarella cheese, slices of tomato and of course, feta cheese. It was awesome goodness. Then I was at Wal-Mart one day and found a loaf of french bread for 75 cents and thought it was the perfect time to attempt to make this bread on my own!

My attempt didn't turn out as great as I would've liked, so if you read this and have some suggestions, let me know!

Tomato Feta Bread
- Cut french bread into thin slices.
- Spread a little butter on each piece.
- Sprinkle with garlic powder and Kraft parmesan cheese.
- Put thin slices of tomato on bread slices.
- Cover in feta cheese crumbles and mozzarella cheese.
- Bake until crispy and cheese is melted.
(I put a small tray in the toaster oven at 350 for about 10-12 minutes.)
* Sorry I didn't take any pictures after the bread was baked!
I think this is what I'll do different next time....
In addition to the garlic powder, I will also use some italian seasoning. And instead of slices of tomato, I will dice the tomato. The tomato slices were just a little too fresh & juicy and tend to make the bread soggy. And I think I needed more cheese! Chris doesn't like tomatoes so I made a few slices without and those pieces were excellent. :)
Let me know if you have made something like this or have any suggestions for me!
