Grilled Tomatoes with Mozzarella

Grilled Tomatoes and Mozzarella are a fast and easy side dish or appetizer.  Tomato slices are grilled on the BBQ then topped with a slice of Mozzarella add a little drizzle of Olive Oil and fresh chopped Basil. Perfect!

With Summer winding down and tomatoes are everywhere, your local farmer’s market, the supermarket and if you are lucky enough even your own garden, then you are probably looking for fast and easy ways to use up all the beautiful ripe and not so ripe tomatoes.

From a Tasty Fresh Tomato Sauce to the perfect BBQ side dish, an Easy Italian Bruschetta to one of my absolute favourites, Best Pizza dough with chopped fresh tomatoes.

But sometimes a Fast and Easy Appetizer just can’t be beat.  Especially when you are grilling tomatoes.  Of course you are going to want to use a firmer ripe tomato for this, just slice them up to your desired thickness, remember not too thin!

Place the slices on the hot BBQ grill or even an indoor Pan Grill flipping them over to grill on both sides.

Grilled Tomatoes with Mozzarella

Slice up the same amount of Fresh Mozzarella, place a slice immediately on the Grilled Tomato slices don’t forget to drizzle with a little Olive Oil, sprinkle with some Oregano, Salt and of course some fresh chopped Basil. You will be amazed how really delicious this is.

To tell the truth this simple Grilled Tomatoes with Mozzarella Appetizer could also become an awesome Breakfast (and why not?) Light Meal or even a yummy sandwich idea.  With summer coming to a close you are going to want to eat all the Summer Veggies you can!
