Bruschetta; Life is Good with a Little Baguette and Basil

Today I made a very quick and easy recipe with my friends. It is called Bruschetta. It is a fabulous appetizer and snack that, in my opinion, combines some of the most delicious ingredients together into a bitesize piece of amazingness! 

     Ingredients: 

• One Large Baguette (or really any crunchy on outside, soft in middle bread) 
• Cherry tomatoes 
• Chopped Basil and Full Leaf (for garnish)
• Butter (or ghee, which is clarified butter and is considered a dairy substitute)
• Parmigiana cheese 
• Extra Virgin Olive Oil 
• Finely Diced Garlic 

1. First cut the Baguette into slices at a slight diagonal angle, so to make even slices. 
2. Then melt a little bit of butter in a pan/skillet and tilt to spread. 
3. Take each slice of bread and gently dip in olive oil and then place in pan. 
4. Let the bread get nice and toasty and make sure it is not soggy then flip to other side. 
5. Chop the cherry tomatoes into either quarters or halves and put in bowl. 
6. Drizzle a little olive oil into the bowl and coat tomatoes. 
7. Then add the finely chopped garlic to the bowl and mix. 
8. Then add the chopped basil and repeat again. Then add salt and pepper to your liking. 
9. Next coat every nicely toasted piece of baguette with the tomatoes, garlic and basil. 
10. Then to finish it off shave Parmigiana cheese on top and some basil leaves, for garnish! 

   And VOILA!

Enjoy!
