Made it for Christmas last year, and my family is requesting it again this year! Delicious!

Just delicious- -I used my own windowsill-grown basil and topped with a slice of tomato instead, but otherwise just as the recipe said- -quick and yummy!

I followed the recipe, but my guests were less than thrilled.
