This is a quick appetizer. Buy a fresh loaf of herb or whole grain bread and slice into 1/2 inch or smaller slices. Toast lightly. Brush toast lightly with olive oil/garlic mixture. Layer fresh mozerella slices, fresh basil and fresh tomato slices on each piece. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place in broiler, oven or toaster oven until the cheese melts. You can put the tomato or the cheese slice on top- whatever you prefer. As long as basil is not on top as it tends to burn and lose its flavor. Cool slightly and serve.
