with basil and cheesy baguette
The only thing better than a warm bowl of soup for dinner is a crusty melty mozzarella baguette to have along with it. The carrots and basil make this dish vibrant both in colour and in taste.

4
- Cut the baguettes in half and pop onto a lined baking tray.
- Warm in the oven, 8-10 mins.
- Meanwhile, tear the mozzarella into small pieces.
- Cover the baguette halves with half the mozzarella during the last minute and let it melt in the oven.
5
