|
- A clove of garlic
- Fresh basil leaves
- Good quality olive oil
|

oven. Don't leave it to long so that it doesn't dry out. - Lay the slices of mozzarella and tomatoes alternately over the bread. Put

- Repeat with remaining bread, making sure to whisk the liquid before each dip to keep the spices from settling to the bottom.
Plum Jam
PLUMS PLUMS everywhere so lets make some jam for your Purebread toast in the winter. (Makes six 8oz. jars).
Handy Hint: Plums can be popped in freezer until you are ready to make your jam.

1. Pit, chop, and mash plums. Place in large pan over medium heat. Add 1/4 cup lemon juice to pan. Cook to a full boil.
2. In separate bowl, add sugar and pectin and mix together. Add sugar/pectin mixture to pan. Stir. Cook to a full boil for 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat.
3. Fill jars to 1/4" of top.
