This is one of my own creations; a crunchy, tasty twist on the classic bruschetta. I am a devout garlic-lover, so I use lots, but you can use less if you prefer. The flavor of this bruschetta gets better as it sets, so it is a great make-ahead appetizer. I enjoy this recipe with a nice big bowl of soup for a light, healthy lunch. Ingredients:
2 large tomatoes, peeled,seeded, and diced |
1/4 cup finely diced onion |
1/4 cup finely diced green pepper |
1/4 cup finely diced celery |
1/2-1 tablespoon olive oil |
black pepper |
salt |
1 dash garlic powder |
4 cloves garlic, minced |
1 tablespoon dried basil |
1 loaf crusty italian bread or 1 loaf crusty french bread, sliced and toasted |
grated parmesan cheese |
Directions:
1. Combine all ingredients in medium size bowl.
2. Top toasted bread slices with tomato mixture.
3. Sprinkle with grated parmesan cheese.
4. Refrigerate leftovers.
