The process was as nice looking as the final result!
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

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!)
