Aww..Bruschetta...why don't we meet more often? All of my favorite things bread, cheese, garlic, tomatoes. Someone tell my why I don't eat this everyday? After moving to Kansas City I often find myself craving bruschetta from one of our favorite italian resturants back home, Bravo. So tonight I decided that even though it is 20 degrees out I would make something that reminds me of summer. I searched through a few great recipes but decided to come up with my own 'best of' flavors and this is what I came up with. complete yummo.
9 3/4in slices of french bread
3 Roma tomatoes
5 pinches of cilantro
1/4 white onion
5 shakes of basil
3 shakes of garlic salt
3 tbl minced garlic
5 grinds of black pepper
1 grind of sea salt
1 sec pour of balsamic vinegar
3 tbl olive oil
-Preheat oven @ 400 degrees
bake bread for approx 8min (if you prefer your bread to cut the roof of your mouth when you bite..you may want to bake longer)
-While baking the bread combine the ingredients and pulsate in a food processor until preferred consistency.
-Once the bread is finished apply half a slice of muenster cheese to each piece and broil it until cheese is browned.(about 3-4 min)
-Let bread cool then spoon a generous amount of tomatoe mixture onto each piece.
Sprinkle with parmesan. YUMMO!
**Optional: Add crumbled (cooked)italian sausage if desired before tomato mixture.
