bruchetta!

I just made and ate a wonderful bruchetta with toast for lunch. Here is how I made this Culinary bliss....
It's so easy. all you need is:

-bread
(any bread of your choice. You can use sliced bagette, sliced chibatta or sliced sarah lee whatever suits your fancy)
-about 4 on the vine tomatoes or roma tomatoes.
-1 clove fresh garlic
-3 fresh basil leaves chopped
-balsamic vinager and olive oil about 1/4 cup each
-shredded parmesan cheese
-sea salt and pepper to taste
- and BUTTER:)

I began by dicing the tomatoes and placing in a bowl. then I chopped the garlic clove and threw it in. Add the chopped Basil, olive oil, balsamic, salt & pepper. sprinkle parmesan and set aside.

Start melting butter in a frying pan big enough to fit 3-4 pieces of toast. I use a lot of butter but if you want a little then that will work too. toast the bread and place on a plate. you can spoon the bruchetta on the toast or let your family or friends spoon it on their own.

The beauty of this dish is you can modify it any way you want. be creative and have fun with this one. It is fresh and very easy to make. Use as a snack or appitizer.

It should serve 5-6 people. It always depends on how much they eat.

Enjoy!
