PREHEAT oven to 400°F.
COMBINE tomatoes, vinegar, onion, basil, TSTE® Tuscany Spice Blend, and TSTE® Tomato Powder in a medium bowl.
PLACE bread slices on a baking sheet and use a basting brush to brush each with TSTE® Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Sprinkle TSTE® Black Truffle Sea Salt evenly amongst slices.
BAKE in oven until bread is slightly browned; about 5 mins.
TOP each slice with about ¼ cup of the tomato mixture.
PLACE a slice of Gouda cheese on each and bake for 7-9 mins.
COOL, serve, and enjoy! Garnish with additional TSTE® Tuscany Spice Blend or TSTE® Black Truffle Sea Salt if desired.
*For a lighter option: replace Gouda with shredded mozzarella or hummus (underneath the tomatoes).
