Instructions
Spread a small dab of butter on sliced baguettes, and top each baguette with a slice of the quartered cheese.
Place the baguettes on an ungreased baking sheet, and broil in the oven for 1 minute (or until the cheese is melted, and the bread is slightly toasted.)
Combine all ingredients for bruschetta.
Top each baguette slice with about a Tablespoon of the tomato-herbed mixture, and serve immediately!
