This appetizer is easy and delicious. It's great as a side bread for Italian pasta dishes, soup or chili, too.

Ingredients

  • 3 Roma tomatoes, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, minced
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, minced
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • Oregano fresh (optional)
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • 1 baguette or loaf French bread, sliced

Steps

  • 1
    Stir together tomatoes, basil, parsley, oregano, garlic and olive oil in a glass bowl. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add salt at the end, as it tends to break the tomatoes up.
  • 2
    Preheat the oven to 300° F. Brush baguette slices with olive oil, salt and Italian seasoning and place in the oven. Remove when slices begin to brown.
  • 3
    Spoon the tomato mixture onto the toasted baguette slices and you’re ready to eat. To bring out the beautiful colors of bruschetta, serve on white plates and enjoy!
