I made this tonight for Sunday dinner at my dad's house! So easy and perfect with any Italian meal!
1 loaf good, crusty Artisan Italian bread
olive oil
6 roma tomatoes, diced and seeded
4 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
6 basil leaves, chopped
salt and pepper to taste
2 garlic cloves, minced
Romano or parmesan cheese- from a block
Toss diced tomatoes with about 5 tablespoons olive oil, salt and pepper, garlic, basil, and balsamic vinegar. Let sit in the bowl for at least an hour- so all of the flavors marinate the tomatoes.
Slice bread into 1/2" slices and arrange on a baking sheet. Drizzle lightly with olive oil. Put under broiler for 5 minutes to toast up- careful not to burn.
Arrange bread slices on a platter and top with the tomato mixture.
Take a vegetable peeler and shave off of a block of pecorino Romano or parmesan cheese thin shavings. Top the bruschetta with 1 or 2 pieces of cheese each.
Enjoy!
