Tomato Basil Bruschetta
Ingredients
  • 8 seeded, chopped roma (plum) tomatoes
  • 5 leaves chopped fresh basil
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 pinch dried oregano
  • 1 dash crushed red pepper
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 (1 pound) loaf French or Italian-style bread
Instructions
1
Preheat the oven's broiling element to its highest temperature.
2
Take a bowl and combine diced tomatoes, chopped basil leaves, minced garlic, dried oregano, sliced red pepper, salt, and black pepper. Add a sufficient amount of olive oil to the mixture, ensuring it is evenly coated.
3
Place slices of bread on a baking sheet in a single layer, cutting them to approximately 1/2 inch in thickness.
4
Place the baking sheet under the preheated broiler and toast the bread slices until they are lightly browned, flipping them every 30 seconds.
5
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and spread the tomato mixture onto each piece of toasted bread.
6
Place the bread back under the broiler and toast until the tomato mixture is hot but not cooked, requiring 2 to 3 minutes.
