Bruschetta Recipe

Preparation Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Tomato Topping

   Dice the Roma tomatoes and place them in a mixing bowl. Add the chopped basil leaves, extra virgin olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to combine and set aside to let the flavors meld.

2. 2

   Toast the Ciabatta

   Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Slice the ciabatta loaf in half lengthwise and then into individual pieces if desired. Brush the cut sides with olive oil and grill for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.

3. 3

   Assemble the Bruschetta

   Once the ciabatta is toasted, remove it from the grill. Top each slice generously with the tomato and basil mixture. Optionally, drizzle extra balsamic vinegar on top before serving.
