Our recipe video for the tomato mozzarella casserole on toast has been published a long time ago. However, the recipe was previously missing from the blog. Since this video is now booming during Advent, it's time we made the recipe available to you here too. At first I was surprised that the video recipe was such a hit, especially at Christmas time. However, when I think about the fact that Advent is the time when you pile up a lot of calories by baking cookies and stollen, then a light and simple recipe like this casserole is just the thing for a quick lunch or dinner.
Most tomato mozzarella casserole recipes we know use pasta as an ingredient. However, we tried out a new version that we really like. Try it with toast instead of pasta.
