Ingredients

  • 5-6 Roma tomatoes
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 8 basil leaves
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 loaf rustic bread or baguette

Instructions

  • Cut tomatoes into small chunks. Toss tomatoes with salt and place in a colander for at least an hour or two. This will help remove excess water from the tomatoes.
  • In a small pan, heat olive oil and minced garlic cloves for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat to cool while tomatoes are draining.
  • Roll the basil leaves together and cut them into ribbons.
  • Strain garlic pieces from cooled olive oil. In a large bowl, stir in basil and olive oil into strained tomatoes.
  • Slice and toast bread for 3-5 minutes. Serve bruschetta with warm bread.
  • Refrigerate for up to 3 days.
