Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  In a medium bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, olive oil, oregano, basil and parsley.  Place bread on a baking sheet, and top with tomato mixture.  Sprinkle with Parmesan.  Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until bottom of bread is browned.  Allow to cool 5 minutes before serving.

Borg Cube Slices

8 cups Chex cereal (your favorite or a mix of all)
1 cup pecan halves
1 stick butter
1 c. brown sugar
1/4 c. corn syrup
1 tsp. baking soda

Melt butter with brown sugar and corn syrup. Bring to a boil, cook on low for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally then add the baking soda and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Mixture will be foamy.
Pour over cereal and pecans in 9x13 pan and toss well. Bake at 250 degrees for 1 hour, stirring after 30 minutes.
Cool over waxed paper on cooky coolers.

 

(I usually have to double or triple this recipe!)
