Italian Teese Appetizers:
1/2" round of the Teese tube
6-8 basil leaves
1/4 tomato sliced very thinly
Place the Teese round on parchment paper and melt in the microwave, or broiler, until completely melted and it is spread out. Make sure the Teese is spread evenly. Let it rest for 1-2, just enough for the Teese to firm up.
Cut square edges to the sheet of Teese.
Layer thinly slices tomatoes and basil leaves.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper and carefully roll up, and poke with a toothpick about every inch.
Garnish with basil or oregano.
Chill before serving to ensure stability.

What a great rendition of your Nana's recipe!
Sounds delicious, like a caprese bite of yumminess.
Cute! These would make great hors d'oeuvres.
Wow! I would never think to melt Teese and let it re-harden. I bet really couldn't do that with regular cheese. I'm sure I'd totally mess up the nice Teese roll when attempting to remove it from the parchment paper though...that's my luck.
damn! how I wish I could find teese in LA!
Oh wow--those sound *amazing* and look pretty darn mouth watering too! I wish I could get my hands on some Teese!

It's like serendipity! My roma tomatoes and basil are growing like crazy in the garden, and the innaugural log of Teese is making it's way throught the postal system at this moment. I can't wait to make this!! Yum!
Those look delicious. Reminds me of one of my breakfast favorites, sprouted bagel w/ hummus, tomato, and basil...

Nice mention in vegan bodybuilder. Shocked to see your name there.
Happy Herbivore - I am surprised Teese has yet to reach LA! It sounds like it's time to visit Portland!
Pixiepine - Perfect!!
Float and twirl - I was honored to be mentioned!
