Bruschetta

Who loves a quick and simple appetizer?? This one is perfect for anytime, but also the red and green make it perfect for this time of year!

All you do is chop your tomatoes, onion and basil. Then mix together with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.

Toast some fresh baguette bread. Top the bread with your tomato mixture and drizzle with balsamic glaze! If you can’t find a balsamic glaze at your grocery store simply bring some balsamic vinegar to a boil and let it simmer until it thickens. Then, serve and enjoy!
