Slice the tomatoes into quarters to create bite sized pieces.

Melt a few tablespoons of butter in a skillet and grill the bread on both sides until golden and gorgeously browned. Grill in batches if necessary.
Remove from the skillet and immediately brush the bread on both sides with the cut side of a whole garlic clove.
Top each slice with the marinated tomato mixture and garnish with feta cheese. Say Grace and enjoy!!
