TOMATO BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Add the tomatoes, garlic, 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, red pepper flakes, basil and balsamic vinegar to a bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature while you toast the bread.
• Slice bread and add to a baking sheet in a single layer. Toast in the oven until golden brown about 5 minutes. Top the bread with tomatoes and drizzle with remaining extra-virgin olive oil right before serving.

TOMATO BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the onions, tomatoes, garlic and basil, taking care not to mash or break up the tomatoes too much. Add the balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil. Add salt and pepper to taste. Mix again. Cover and chill for at least an hour. This will allow the flavours to soak and blend together.
• Slice the baguette loaf diagonally into 12 thick slices and lightly toast them until they are light brown on both sides. Serve the mixture on the warm slices of bread. If you prefer the mixture at room temperature, remove from the fridge half an hour before serving.

• Combine tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, balsamic vinegar, 1/4 cup olive oil, basil, and garlic; let tomato mixture rest for 15 to 30 minutes.
• Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
• Arrange French bread slices on a large baking sheet; drizzle with 1/4 cup olive oil.
• Toast bread in preheated oven until lightly browned, about 1 minute on each side. Top bread slices with tomato mixture using a slotted spoon, allowing excess liquid to drain. Return bread to baking sheet and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.
• Broil in preheated oven until cheese melts, about 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

TOMATO & GARLIC BRUSCHETTA BREAD

Steps:

• Mix roughly chopped tomatoes, onion, parsley & garlic, apple juice and vinegar in a shallow bowl.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Cover bowl and let tomatoes marinate at room temperature for about 1-2 hour.
• Stir occasionally to distribute flavours.
• Meanwhile, heat the grill/broiler.
• For the bread rub one side with garlic and brush with a little olive oil and grill/broil them oiled-side up until lightly browned.
• Place a good 2-3 spoonful of tomato mixture on each slice and serve with a fork and knife.

GARLIC BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Separate the cloves of garlic from the heads and place in an ovenproof dish. Drizzle 1 ounce of olive oil over the unpeeled cloves and roast for 25 minutes until soft. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
• Quarter the tomatoes, remove the seeds, and dice. Finely chop the basil and oregano.
• Halve the baguette lengthwise and toast until golden. Peel the skin off of the garlic cloves. Mash the softened garlic and spread on toasted bread. Cut the baguette into diagonal pieces.
• Mix the diced tomatoes, chopped basil, oregano, salt, pepper, and another ounce of olive oil together. Spoon the tomato mixture evenly over the garlic baguette pieces. Top each piece with one slice of goat cheese and drizzle the remaining olive oil over the goat cheese and tomatoes.
• To serve, garnish with sprigs of fresh basil and serve immediately.

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!

GARLIC BREAD BRUSCHETTA

Steps:

• Cut the garlic bread up and place on an oven tray. Turn the oven on 180 degrees and bake until they are slightly crunchy.
• Dice up the tomato and onion and place it in a bowl.
• Grate cheese on the smallest grate possible and place in the bowl with the tomato and red onion. Mix all the ingredients together.
• Take the garlic bread out of the oven and pour a little balsamic vinegar on it. Spoon desired amount of tomato/onion/cheese onto the garlic bread. Personal choice if you want a little more balsamic on top.
• Done.
