Ingredients

1 loaf (1 pound) french or Italian bread
2 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
4 medium roma (plum) tomatoes, thinly sliced
1/4 cup sliced ripe olives
1/4 teaspoon dried basil leaves
3/4 cup crumbled feta cheese (3 ounces)
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup olive or vegetable oil

Directions:

1. Heat oven to 375°. Cut bread loaf horizontally in half. Place halves, cut sides up, on cookie sheet. Brush with butter. Top with tomatoes, olives, basil and cheese.

A NOTE from DR. GHOSH
Skip the feta cheese during neutropenic times when your resistance is down. Try substituting a cooked cheese, such as shredded mozzarella.

Joan K. shares her Recipe "When I was really fatigued, I turned to the easiest recipes possible, like these tasty bruschetta. Eating small amounts of foods more often throughout the day helped me be able to eat more overall."
