Baked Cheesy Tomato Caprese Dip

Yay it’s Friday!  And that means it’s time for our #FridayRecipeClub!  This week our theme is tomatoes…did you know that it’s National Fresh Tomato Day on April 6?  Well now you do.  And that deserves some dip don’t you think?  😉

This is the worlds easiest dip right here.  That’s right.

This Baked Cheesy Tomato Caprese Dip is a 10 minute, 5 ingredient dip.  You barely have time to cut the bread for it by the time it’s done.  And let me tell you, it will disappear in less time than it took you to make it in the first place.  It’s SO good.  My littlest even liked it and he hates tomatoes…ok, he just dipped his bread around the tomatoes, but he liked that, so that works.
