This is delicious. I used a baguette bread. And I did it in the oven at broil. I omitted the salt and pepper. Instead of provolone cheese, I used monterey jack. And I used less. This has so much flavors. Yummy. Thanks Kizzicate :) Made for Zaar Star Game

We really enjoyed these with our dinner. Although we felt there was a tad bit too much cheese. It was very dominate. Love the sun dried tomatoes. The only thing I did different was to finely chopped everything and not use the food processor. Thanks for posting. Made for "Gimme 5" tag game. :)

I halved this mix & put it on muffins as a kind of mini-pizza, tastes great but even though I drained my tomatoes well I did find the topping quite oily, if I was to make this again I would cut back on the butter by about half I think. Thanks for posting!
