Manchego Con Tomates Y Romero Recipes

QUESO DE CABRA CON TOMATE (GOAT CHEESE BAKED IN TOMATO SAUCE)

Steps:

• Preheat conventional oven or toaster oven to 350°F
• Mix together the garlic and olive oil and spread over bread slices and place on a baking sheet.
• Pat the goat cheese into a 1/2-inch pancake and place in shallow baking dish.
• Ladle tomato sauce into dish to come up to top edge of cheese (do not cover the cheese with sauce).
• Bake, uncovered, until sauce begins to bubble at edges and cheese is hot, about 25 minutes. During last 10 minutes of baking, toast bread until golden brown.
• Garnish cheese with basil if using.

TOSTADA CON TOMATE

Steps:

• Grate tomato in a shallow bowl until you are no longer able to do so without skinning your knuckles. You should have what looks like fresh tomato sauce. (I usually eat the little nub of tomato that I couldn't grate with a pinch of salt while I am preparing the meal.).
• Toast slices of bread so that they are crunchy but not too dark or dried out.
• Put desired number of slices on a plate and pierce the entire surface of the open face of the toast with a fork.
• Lightly pour (or sprinkle, depending on what oil-container you have) olive oil over the open faces of the toast.
• Spoon and spread freshly grated tomato over the open faces of the toast.
• Sprinkle with salt and enjoy!
