Tomato, Cheese, Basil Tea Sandwiches image

This is a dainty tea sandwich that is just delicious. Instructions are so that you will get two rounds out of one piece of bread, but if you can't, use a larger cookie cutter, but you will need more bread to make eight little sandwiches. These little ones are not open-faced but have a cover on them.

Yield 8 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 slices white bread (cut into 16 round shapes)
2 tablespoons soft butter

8 slices provolone cheese
16 fresh basil leaves
salt and pepper
olive oil

Steps:

  • Cut 16 small rounds of bread (to make 8 sandwiches) with a round cookie cutter--should be able to get two out of each piece of bread, otherwise, use a larger cutter and more bread.

I'm not a fan of basil, so I left it out of the sandwiches. They were still delicious!

These sandwiches are a great way to use up leftover tomatoes. I always have a few tomatoes left over from my garden, and these sandwiches are a great way to use them up.

I thought these sandwiches were just okay. I think I would have liked them better if the tomatoes were a little riper.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sandwiches fell apart when I tried to cut them. I think I'll try using a different type of bread next time.

I love the way these sandwiches look, but I found them to be a little dry. I think I'll add some mayonnaise next time.

These sandwiches are so easy to make, but they look so impressive. I'm definitely going to make them again for my next party.

I'm allergic to cheese, so I used avocado instead. It was a great substitute and the sandwiches were still delicious.

I had a hard time finding basil, so I used spinach instead. The sandwiches still turned out great!

These sandwiches were a little too bland for my taste. I think I'll add some salt and pepper next time.

I'm not a huge fan of tomatoes, but I really enjoyed these sandwiches. The cheese and basil really balanced out the flavor of the tomatoes.
