Bruschetta

Not every recipe has to be complicated and take a long time to put together.  Note to self. This Bruschetta can be assembled in no time.  The flavors come from the freshness of the ingredients and the tartness of the balsamic you use.  Additionally, I had bought basil to make a pesto.  I did not use all my basil for that recipe and I do not want anything to go to waste.  Bruschetta is a perfect recipe to use the rest of the basil.

Equally important to the freshness of the ingredients is having a hearty, sturdy bread to hold the ingredients.  I bought a nice fresh, crusty Italian bread.  I like the crustiness and then I bake it with olive oil before it is assembled to make it even more crusty.
