Balsamic Tomato Bruschetta

Balsamic Tomato Bruschetta

I've never made bruschetta before, but I am such a fan of it! 

I usually just order it at restaurants, so when I saw this recipe I had to try it.

I really enjoyed the flavors of this recipe and it was juicy enough to soak the bread in it.

You will need:

1 pint cherry tomatoes, chopped

1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped

2 Tbs extra-virgin olive oil

1 Tbs balsamic vinegar

1 garlic clove, minced

1/2 tsp salt

Freshly-ground black pepper, to taste

1/2 tsp sugar

1 baguette, sliced

1 garlic clove

2 Tbs grated Parmesan cheese

To Make:

Combine the chopped tomatoes, basil, olive oil, vinegar, minced garlic, salt, pepper and sugar in a bowl. Toss.

Cut the baguette into 4 pieces. 

Slice in half lengthwise and place on baking sheet. 

Toast in a 400 degrees F oven for about 10 minutes; turn once. 

Remove when crusty on both sides.

Rub bread with the garlic clove. Spoon the tomato mixture over the bread and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

Servings: 8
