Feta Bruschetta

I made this last night and it was so tasty!  It will be even better with garden tomatoes in a few months!

1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup olive oil
10 slices French bread
2 large tomatoes, seeded and chopped
4 oz crumbled feta cheese
2-3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp dried basil

In a bowl, combing butter and oil; brush onto both sides of bread.  Place on baking sheet and bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes or until lightly browned.

Combine the feta cheese, garlic, and basil; sprinkle over toast.  Top with tomato.  Bake 8-10 minutes longer or until heated through.  

(I like to use fresh basil instead of dried when I have it, but I put it on after they have cooked.)

German Pancakes

I love German Pancakes! We usually eat them for dinner on crazy days!

German Pancakes
6 eggs
1 cup milk
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup flour
6 Tbls. margarine
Combine eggs, milk and salt with mixer until fluffy. Tap in flour a little at a time while mixing. Beat until blended. Melt margarine in a 9 x 13 pan at 425 degrees until melted. Pour egg batter into pan and bake for 25 min.
You can top these with syrup, powdered sugar or fruit.
