Bruschetta
Bruschetta is a quick appetizer that fabulous for a dinner party, or a Wednesday. Whatever you need, I don't judge. I love to make these with colorful cherry tomatoes to add a bit of flair to your tablescape!
Ingredients
- 1 loaf crusty baguette
- 1 lbs cherry tomatoes sliced in half or diced
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

- 1 tsp salt
- 5-8 basil leaves chopped finely

Instructions
- Slice the baguette to form small bite-sized crostinis. Toast them with a little oil at 500° for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.
- Combine tomatoes, garlic, basil, salt, and olive oil in a mixing bowl.
- Top each crostini with the tomato mixture and add a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. Top with a crack of black pepper for garnish!
