Ingredients
Bruschetta
- 6 roma tomatoes diced
- 1/2 cup red onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/4 cup fresh basil chopped
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1-2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 Tablespoons Parmesan Cheese grated (optional)
Balsamic reduction (optional)
- 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
- 1 french baguette sliced into 1/2-inch slices
Instructions
- Combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, garlic, basil, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Sprinkle with the Parmesan, if desired.
- Heat a broiler or grill to high heat, then toast the baguette slices on each side until lightly browned.
- Serve together for guests to top their toasts individually so they don't get soggy, or top each toast with the tomato mixture and serve immediately.
- If desired, make a balsamic reduction to drizzle over the top of each bruschetta by bringing the balsamic vinegar to a boil over medium heat in a small saucepan, then reducing the heat to medium-low until the liquid has reduced by half, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow the balsamic vinegar to cool before drizzling over the bruschetta. The reduction will continue to thicken as it cools.
Notes
- Leftover bruschetta will keep in the fridge for a day or two, but is best enjoyed the day it’s made. Store it in an airtight container to keep it fresh.
