Barbari Caprese Flatbread

18 Feb

One of my favorite things to do is go to the farmer’s market and grab fresh tomatoes and basil.  Since I always came home with too much basil, I thought of this fun, easy recipe.  I purchase the Barbari bread from the Persian grocery store, although any flat bread will work. This recipe works for both breakfast and for a late night snack.
