Heirloom Tomato with Feta and Arugula Ciabatta Sandwich




             Heirloom tomatoes are one of Summers greatest pleasures. Feta cheese is my one
              greatest pleasures. Match them together and put them on a crusty Ciabatta loaf
              and you my friend's have a dreamy and easy Summer meal. Adding the spicy
              kick of arugula adds a little depth. Pour yourself a glass of Vino or Sparkling
             water and dinner is served.

                                Heirloom Tomato with Feta and Arugula Ciabatta Sandwich

                      1 long loaf Ciabatta, sliced in half
                      4 heirloom tomatoes
                      Feta cheese, cut in slices. ( you could use crumbled )
                      arugula
                      2 tablespoon olive oil plus more for drizzling
                      salt and pepper

            1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut Ciabatta and pour 2 tablespoons of olive
            oil on the bread. Bake bread until lightly golden.
            2) Put arugula on bread and place tomatoes and cheese on top. Add extra oil
            and salt and pepper.
            3) I put the other slice of bread on top and baked it for an additional 7 minutes.

  50. I can't eat bread because I have problems with gluten. When I did eat bread my favorite sandwiches were blt. I'd probably enjoy eating the sandwitch you made to. What I love about your sandwich is that it has cheese and tomatoes in it. If you want yummy tomatoes get organic ones. The redder they are the juicier they are.
