Instructions

- Heat the olive oil in a small pot on the stove over medium high heat.
- Add the garlic and saute for 1 minute. Add the balsamic vinegar, salt and pepper. Simmer on the stove for 5 minutes.

Cup of Yum
Tomato Basil Bruschetta
- While the salmon is in the oven, prepare the bruschetta.
- Combine all of the ingredients in a mixing bowl.
- When the salmon comes out of the oven, top with the bruschetta and serve immediately.
Notes
- Add vegetables! Feel free to add broccoli or cauliflower florets, or chopped summer squash or zucchini, around the salmon or on a separate baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil and top with salt and pepper. These vegetables will bake in the same time at the same temperature as the salmon.
- Foil lining or lining the baking sheet with parchment paper is optional. It simply makes for an easier clean-up, which I love!
