After bringing home all those tomatoes the other day I knew the very first thing I’d make would be bruschetta. If you have never made bruschetta before, give it a try. Not only is it fast and easy to make, but bruschetta is a major crowd pleaser as well.
The ingredients are simple. A french baguette, a couple of tomatoes, a little basil, Parmesan cheese, olive oil, balsamic vinegar and a little salt and pepper to taste.
Here is my recipe:
Slice bread about 1″ wide and drizzle with olive oil.
Toast both sides of the bread, put on a platter and set aside.
Chop tomatoes and basil.
Add 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar.
Add 1 tablespoon EVOO + salt and pepper to taste. Toss ingredients together.
Place tomato mixture on toasted bread and serve.
