Caprese Toast with Tomato, Fresh Mozzarella & Jalapeño-Cilantro SauceCaprese Toast with Tomato, Fresh Mozzarella & Jalapeño-Cilantro Sauce — a 18-minute snack recipe with 11 ingredients, serving 6.Ingredients

1 ½ small bunches cilantro

1 ½ (227 g) pkgs fresh mozzarella cheese

3 cloves garlic

1 ½ jalapeño peppers

1 ½ limes

3 tomatoes

6 slices whole grain bread

brown sugar

cumin, ground

extra virgin olive oil

salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to broil on high and position rack in the upper third of the oven. (Skip this step if you are using a toaster for the bread.)

Wash and dry the fresh produce.

Juice limes into a medium bowl.

Peel and mince garlic. Add to the bowl with the lime juice along with oil, sugar, cumin, and salt. Whisk to combine the lime mixture.

Quarter jalapeño peppers lengthwise; seed and remove ribs with a spoon to reduce spice level. Mince and add to the bowl with the lime mixture. (Be careful with jalapeños; do not touch your eyes and ensure you wash your hands after handling or wear gloves while preparing.)

Shave cilantro leaves off the stems; discard stems and mince the leaves. Add to the bowl and stir to combine the jalapeño-cilantro sauce; set aside.

Arrange bread on a large baking sheet pan. Place in the oven and broil, flipping halfway through, until toasted, about 2 minutes; remove from oven. (Alternatively, you can use a toaster.)

Meanwhile, slice mozzarella and tomatoes into thin rounds.

To serve, divide toast between plates. Top with mozzarella, tomatoes, and jalapeño-cilantro sauce. Enjoy!
