Bruschetta

I love eating bruschetta. The good thing about bruschetta is that it's easy to make, it can make your tummy full and of course it's delicious. I can eat bruschetta both for an appetizer and main course =) Here's one simple bruschetta recipe for you by Apron and Sneakers. Who knows you might want to try to make it for the weekend. 


Bruschetta al Pomodoro & Asparagi 

Ingredients:
Serves 4
  • 4 slices of sourdough bread 
  • 250 g. tomatoes (the sweetest variety that you can find), finely chopped
  • Fresh basil, minced
  • Salt
  • Extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, halved
  • 4 - 6 asparagus spears, grilled & chopped
Directions:
  1. In a bowl, mix the tomatoes, asparagus, basil, salt and extra virgin oil. 
  2. Grill both sides of the bread on the barbecue grill (the best), in the oven, on a griddle or even in a bread toaster.  
  3. Rub one side of the bread with halved garlic, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil then spoon the tomato and asparagus mixture on it.  
  4. Serve while hot.
