Tomato Bruschetta

Hands down Tomato Bruschetta is my all time favorite appetizer, this summer! This classic Italian antipasto consists of a toasted slice of bread topped with a mixture of tomato, red onion, basil, garlic, balsamic vinegar or glaze, salt, and pepper. It is the perfect appetizer for summertime entertaining. It’s also a great use of stuff often picked up at a farmer’s ingredients that are easy to work with, fresh and delicious.

I am sure after making this it will instantly become as obsessed with it as me!  It looks very fancy when you serve it but it is actually super easy to make.  The basil in the picture is optional but I highly suggest it both for its taste and the pretty color it adds to the dish. I even had some of my headshots taken, by the amazing Matt Armendariz, with a board of this Tomato Bruschetta in front of me. I can’t get over the pictures he took of me. I really love them! He is so amazingly talented and simply the nicest person ever.
