Oven Roasted Bruschetta 

 

The great thing about bruschetta is it’s super easy to make and a great way to use up extra tomatoes. Oven roasting brings out the best flavor too.

 

2-3 cups of chopped fresh tomatoes, chopped

2 large cloves of garlic, minced

2-3 Tbsp. olive oil

1/3 to 1/2 cup basil, roughly chopped

1/2 tsp. salt

freshly ground pepper

French bread, sliced and toasted crisply for serving

 

 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly toss the tomatoes and garlic. Spread the chopped tomatoes/garlic on a lightly oiled baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes. Remove from oven and cool completely. 

 

Add the basil, salt and pepper to the tomato mixture and toss lightly. Serve with toasted slices of French bread.
