Bruschetta; Simple, Easy, Tasty

Eating a simple yet delicious snack or meal is both nice and time saving! I love prepping bruschetta and eating for multiple meals.

Ingredients:

• 1 loaf French bread or baguette
• 7 Roma tomatoes
• 1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 3/4 tsp salt
• 1/4 cup chopped basil (fresh)
• 2 cloves minced garlic
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 1/4 cup olive oil, or butter
• 1/4 cup diced onion (optional)
• 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese
• Check out the link for my favorite mixing/prep bowls below!!!

Directions:

• preheat oven to 350 degrees F
• Slice baguette bread to desired thickness, I prefer about 1/2’’ slices
• brush olive oil or melted butter on both sides of bread
• dice tomatoes, garlic and onions
• sauté onions in 1/2 tbsp of olive oil (to bring out flavor) if using minced garlic (dried spice) skip this step
• add dry spices to tomato mixture (tomato, garlic, onion) and add balsamic vinegar, stir and leave to sit while bread is baking
• place bread on baking sheet in oven for 5 minutes, then flip and return to oven for 5 more minutes (**depending on how crunchy you prefer your bread, adjust time in oven)
• remove bread from oven and top with tomato mixture
• top bread with mozzarella and place in oven on broil for one minute, to melt the cheese (skip cheese step if you’re vegan!)
• enjoy!
