Ingredients
  

  • 1 loaf Good quality whole wheat bread sliced approximately into 1 inch slices 
  • 2 Tomatoes, sliced, salted, peppered and a wee bit of sugar sprinkled on the tops
  • Shredded Mozzarella cheese
  • Freshly chopped basil

Simple Mayo Mustard Spread

  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise (Hellmans)
  • 2 tbsp. Dijon Mustard
  • 1 1/2 tbsp. Maple Syrup
  • 1 tsp. Italian Seasoning
  • 1 tsp. Garlic Powder
  • Salt & Pepper

Instructions
 

  • Mix All ingredients for the Simple Mayo Spread, and set aside.
    Directions for Assembly:
    Toast the bread lightly in a toaster oven. Careful not to toast the bread too much. Pull the Toast out and add a good amount of the Mayo/Mustard Spread to the bread slices. 
    Top with Mozzarella cheese, Tomatoes, and Basil.
    Place them back into the toaster oven (or oven) and broil them until the cheese has melted nicely. If the Tomatoes appear too dry, you could always add a little bit of olive oil when they come out. 
    Serve Immediately.
