Rao's Recipes

Drain 1 jar Rao’s Roasted Peppers, reserving the flavored oil for toasting the bread. The oil can also be used at a later time to dress your salads, toss with pasta, or sauté fresh vegetables. Dice the roasted  peppers and set aside. Slice fresh mozzarella into 1/4” slices and set aside. Slice a fresh Italian bread,  baguette or ficelle into 1/2” slices. Brush sliced bread with the reserved oil and place on a cookie sheet. Broil until lightly toasted. Arrange toasted bread on a platter. Garnish with one slice of the  fresh mozzarella, top with roasted peppers and sprinkle with freshly chopped basil.
