TOMATO AND BASIL BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• Whisk together chopped garlic, vinegar, salt, pepper, and basil.
• When combined slowly drizzle in oil.
• Add tomatoes and let sit for 20 minutes at room temp.
• Meanwhile back at the bat cave, toast the bread.
• This can be done either in the toaster (if it's got really wide slots) or under the broiler (if using this method watch closely so it doesn't become a brickette).
• When the bread is toasted rub each piece, on one side, with the whole garlic pieces.
• Place the bread on a cookie sheet and top with tomato mixture.
• Sprinkle on a little cheese and broil till the cheese melts (you can skip that last broiling bit and it's equally as wonderful).
• Serve immediately.
• The tomato mixture also makes a wonderful vinegrette for an antipasto salad.
• Enjoy!

• Heat oven to 400°F. Arrange the bread slices on a large baking sheet in an even layer. If you would like, brush the bread lightly with olive oil (or you can skip this step). Bake for 7 to 10 minutes - keeping a close eye on the bread so that it doesn't over bake - until it is toasted and crispy. Transfer baking sheet to a wire cooling rack.
• Slice off the ends of the garlic cloves (without removing the papery skins). Then rub the cut end of the garlic evenly over the tops of the bread slices to add as much or as little garlic flavor as you prefer, to taste.
• Taste the tomato topping and season with additional salt (and black pepper, if you'd like) to taste. Add a spoonful of the tomato topping mixture to each slice of bread, then drizzle a hint of olive oil over the tomato topping.
