Easy Ritz Bruschetta

This is an amazing appetizer that has become a favorite of my husband's. I started off with a recipe on the back of a Ritz crackers box, if you can believe it! I adjusted it to his tastes to make what is now a recipe more suited to my husband's likes. It's perfected for serving Hubby right when he gets home from work and wants something to snack on while dinner is finished, or a great passed appetizer at a small party or gathering. Of course it's best served warm, so plan accordingly!

Easy Ritz Bruschetta
1c. chopped plum tomatoes
1/2c. shredded mozarella cheese
1/2c. chopped green bell pepper
1/4c. Italian dressing
4 T. shredded parmesean cheese
15-35 Ritz Crackers
Garlic salt & Basil

Preheat oven to 400degrees. Mix tomatoes, cheese, bell pepper, and dressing. Add garlic salt and basil to taste. In a glass pan, spray bottom with Pam or Canola oil. Line Ritz crackers and put a spoonful of mixture (about 2T.) onto each cracker. Bake 8-10min. or until crackers are warm and barely soft. Serve warm.

Enjoy!
