We made our first batch of salsa and very yummy brushetta this weekend. My hubby, Joe, has a very simple delicious recipe:
Yummy Brushetta
sliced italian or french bread--sliced on a diagonal is pretty
3-4 medium to large fresh tomatoes--any variety will do
2-3 sprigs fresh basil
olive oil--extra virgin is best
asiago cheese--shredded plus extra for garnish
chopped sweet onion--optional, to taste
freshly ground black pepper
fresh parlsey for garnish--optional
Chop tomatoes, basil, and onion. Mix gently and place in bowl to chill while preparing bread.
Drizzle olive oil over bread slices, and top with asiago cheese. Broil just a few minutes until cheese melts. Top with freshly ground pepper. Spoon tomatoes and basil onto bread. Garnish with shredded asiago cheese and a sprig of parsley. Serve while bread is still warm. Makes about 4 servings.
Enjoy. This is a wonderful side for grilled chicken, or steak. It also makes a wonderful meal by itself.
This is a very simple, but delicious recipe. It's one of our favorites!!

I’m thinking that this would be a wonderful thing to serve at the closing reception. There is a grill with cover in the garden — do you think the grill could substitute for broiling??
