Tomato Basil Mozzarella Bagel Toast

Tomato Basil Mozzarella Bagel Toast has a crisp buttered toast, melty Mozzarella, fresh, sliced Heirloom tomatoes, chopped basil, and drizzled with extra virgin olive oil and sprinkled with Kosher salt and fresh ground pepper.

We got a lot of Heirloom tomatoes from our organic, CSA Share this Summer and this bagel toast is a great way to use them up.
