Tomato Bruschetta
Our Tomato Bruschetta is a lovely appetizer to serve before any meal. Garlic is slowly simmered in extra virgin olive oil, then combined with fresh vine ripened tomatoes, aged balsamic vinegar, and fresh basil. The quality of the ingredients is key in this easy recipe, since there are so few. The tangy and herby flavor pairs perfectly with our crusty homemade garlic crostini. This Tomato Bruschetta is sure to satisfy even the most traditional Italian palate.
