Bruschetta
"This easy bruschetta recipe is a wonderful way to use up several of your summer tomatoes! Nothing compares to homemade bruschetta (pronounced “broo-sket-ta”) which is actually not just the tomato topping. Bruschetta is defined as “thick slices of bread grilled, rubbed with garlic, drizzled with olive oil, often topped with tomatoes and herbs, and usually served as an appetizer”. I have heard reports of how soggy the bread can get, making it unappetizing. Serving the topping on the side solves this issue."
