Ingredients

  • ½ cup chopped, seeded Roma tomato
  • 2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon capers
  • ½ teaspoon granulated white sugar
  • ¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper
  • teaspoon salt
  • 10 leaves thinly sliced basil
  • 2 teaspoons salted butter
  • cup sliced cremini mushrooms

  • cup sliced baby portobello mushrooms
  • ¼ cup chopped green onions
  • 1 medium garlic clove, minced
  • Eight ½-inch thick slices baguette, cut on the diagonal and toasted

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the tomato, sherry vinegar, capers, sugar, crushed red pepper, salt and sliced basil. Toss gently and set aside to let the flavors meld.
