Bruschetta

Bruschetta is one of my all time favorite dinners. It is an Italian appetizer that can have many different toppings. I love this for dinner because it is so easy and it is a great way to use up tomatoes that are going bad or bread going stale. My favorite version is tomato, onions, and basil. All you need to do is chop up all three into a bowl and add a good amount of olive oil to coat everything. Then season with salt and pepper. In the picture above I added some klamata olives because I had some in the fridge. After you let that mixture set for awhile so all the flavors blended. Take your bread and drizzle a little olive oil on the top. Traditionally bruschetta is on little toasts from a baguette but sometimes I just use my sandwich bread, usually sourdough. I don't like it too crispy because I always end up cutting my mouth......Stick the bread in the oven/toaster oven, or if you even too lazy to do that like I usually am pop it in the toaster. Once it's crisp take a clove of garlic and rub in all over the bread. Top the bread with the mixture and enjoy!!! You can get really creative with whatever you have in the fridge and have a super satisfying dinner!
