My friends ask me to make this alot.
Ryan and I love to make this alot.
So, here's the recipe... straight out of Better Homes & Garden's cookbook - one of the best wedding gifts ever!
Bruschetta
-1 Tbsp. olive oil
-1 Tbsp. fresh snipped chives
-1 Tbsp. fresh snipped basil
-1 Tbsp. lemon juice
-1 clove garlic, minced
-2 cups chopped roma and/or yellow tomatoes (3-4 medium tomatoes)
-1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
-salt and freshly ground black pepper
-1 8-ounce loaf baguette-style French bread, cut into 1/2 inch slices and toasted
-fresh basil (optional)
*In a medium bowl stir together olive oil, chives, basil, lemon juice and garlic. Add tomato and onion; toss to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Set aside.
*To serve, with a slotted spoon, spoon tomato mixture onto each warm toast slice. If desired, garnish with fresh basil. Serve within 30 minutes (or immediately) for best results and taste.
