PEAR BASIL AND MOZZARELLA TARTINE

TARTINE, the perfect sharable bite

I simply cannot convey how easy this dish is to make—that’s a lie, those words alone pretty much say it all. Really, just layer the ingredients on top of each other and then bake, cut, and eat—THAT’S IT!

The beauty of this kind of dish is that you can absolutely make it your own by using ingredients you have on hand or are feeling for in that moment. Roasted heirloom tomatoes? Go for it! Roasted grapes? All in. You get the idea! Have fun with this one!
