Baked Caprese Dip

1. 1

   Preheat oven to 375 F.

2. 2

   Dice the tomatoes and press them between a few pieces of paper towel to dry.

3. 3

   Keep pressing until most of the water is squeezed out of the tomatoes (youll probably need a few pieces of paper towel).

4. 4

   Place diced tomatoes in the bottom of a small baking dish (I used a small oval baker but something the size of a loaf pan may also be fine).

5. 5

   Sprinkle salt over top.

6. 6

   Like the tomatoes, place the sliced fresh mozzarella between a few pieces of paper towel and squeeze as much water out as you can.

7. 7

   Place the slices on top of the tomatoes.

8. 8

   Sprinkle with chopped fresh basil.

9. 9

   Bake for 15-20 minutes and then broil for about 2 minutes so the cheese becomes bubbly and golden on top.

10. 10

    Serve immediately with crackers or cut baguette slices.

11. 11

    Note: Make sure to squeeze as much liquid out of the tomatoes and mozzarella as possible!

12. 12

    It will be very watery if you dont.
