One of my favorite crowd pleasing recipes- or just for the two of us to enjoy! Homemade brushetta! And, it's super simple- combine diced tomatoes, diced onions, Basil, salt & pepper and a swirl of olive oil in a bowl or container. The longer it sits- the better it tastes after those flavors marry!
My favorite olive oil is a Tuscan infused olive oil I pick up from the Cotton Exchange in Wilmington, NC each year- but, regular EVOO will do the job too!
When you're ready to serve- take a tbsp of chopped fresh garlic- or a sprinkle of garlic powder- and apply to your slice of buttered bread. Grill it up- or broil it in the oven until it's toasted.
Then, top your slice of bread with the tomato mixture and ENJOY!
Easy to follow recipe:
1/4 white onion finely chopped
5-6 basil leaves, finely chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt & pepper
2 cloves Garlic-finely chopped
2tbsp Butter
Italian bread loaf
Combine tomatoes, onion, olive oil, 1 clove of garlic chopped and salt & pepper to taste.stir to combine. Put in refrigerator- better the longer it sits.
Brush Italian bread loaf slices with butter and a bit of chopped garlic. Grill or broil in the oven until toasted. Top with tomato mixture. Enjoy!!
