Number Of Ingredients 17

1 pound ground beef
1 small red onion, finely chopped
1 small carrot, finely chopped
4 garlic cloves, minced
3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 cup dry red wine or beef broth
1 can (15 ounces) crushed tomatoes, undrained
1 can (8 ounces) tomato sauce
1/2 cup vegetable broth
1 bay leaf
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons minced fresh basil or 2 teaspoons dried basil
48 slices French bread baguette (1/4 inch thick)
2 garlic cloves, halved
1/3 cup olive oil
1 cup shaved Parmesan cheese

Steps:

In a large skillet, cook the first five ingredients over medium heat until beef is no longer pink; drain. Add wine, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan.
Stir in the tomatoes, tomato sauce, broth, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 20-25 minutes or until thickened. Discard bay leaf. Stir in basil.
Rub baguette slices with garlic halves; place on ungreased baking sheets. Brush lightly with oil. Bake at 400° for 3-5 minutes or until lightly browned.
Arrange toast on serving platters; top with beef mixture and cheese. Serve immediately.
Yield: 12 servings.
