Tomato Bruschetta

We made this for our Super Bowl Party and it was delicious!

Bread
Slice a baguette (long skinny french bread), any kind of harder dry french
bread will work, slice on an angle, lightly brush with oil on both sides,
broil until slightly toasted turn over and brown again. You can sprinkle
parmesan cheese on 1 side before toasting if you like.


Sauce
In the summer or when available fresh tomatoes are best, if you don't have
them use a petite cut canned tomato. Cut tomatoes roughly into small
pieces.

For 1 loaf of bread you need about :

1 cup of tomatoes or 1 can
Add 1-3 cloves of chopped garlic
1/4-1/3 cup of roughly chopped fresh basil (I just shook some dried basil in, be careful not to do too much.)
2-3 tablespoons of good olive oil
1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar
salt and pepper
It's best to make the "sauce" at least an hour or 2 before you serve it so the flavors can mix, leave at room temperature.

You can get creative if you'd like and add some chopped olives or capers, or sauteed onions, or even diced fresh peaches, or roasted canned peppers, or artichoke hearts, or not.
