Hot Caprese Dip
- 10 ounces, weight Fresh Mozzarella, Choppped
- 2 whole Roma Tomatoes, Chopped And Seeded
- 3 Tablespoons Freshly Chopped Basil
- Preheat oven to 375F.
- Make sure tomatoes have as much juiced squeezed out of them as possiblethis will prevent the dip from becoming soupy.
- In a small baking dish, combine chopped cheese, tomatoes and basil and mix.
- Bake for 15 minutes, then broil for 2 minutes so cheese becomes bubbly and golden.
- Serve immediately with crackers or melba toasts.
- Note: dip may appear watery which is why it is VERY important to get as much moisture out of the tomatoes as possible.
- Also make sure the dip is consumed immediately, as the longer it sits, the more juice that develops.
- Dont worry if there is a little bit of juiceit is still delicious!
- If you are concerned about the price of fresh mozzarella, you can substitute 8 ounces of cream cheese and 1 1/2 cups shredded, bagged mozzarella.
