Sometimes simple is best! These have lots of flavor and are easy to eat since they don't get messy. Ingredients:
1 loaf french baguette |
1/4 cup olive oil (more or less) |
1 pinch kosher salt |
3 roma tomatoes |
6 fresh basil leaves, finely chopped |
1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese (optional) |
Directions:
1. Slice baguette into 1/2 slices on an angle.
2. Pour olive oil into a shallow bowl, like a small cereal bowl.
3. Dip each slice into the olive oil and place on a cookie sheet.
4. Holding your hand very high, dust a tiny amount of kosher salt over the bruschetta. (Better to skip this step then to do too much. I would skip this step also if you only have regular table salt.).
5. Cut the roma tomatoes in quarters and remove all of the seeds. Then dice them into 1/4 pieces.
6. Sprinkle the diced tomato on the bruschetta. There should be no more than 4-5 pieces of tomato on each.
7. Put no more than 2-3 pieces of basil on each bruschetta.
8. Dust each piece with shredded parmesan cheese if desired.
9. Broil for just a minute or two, watching carefully. They can go from just right to burnt in a flash!
