Tomato Bruschetta W/ Fresh Basil

Filed under: Appetizers,Cooking Recipes — Tags: , , , , , — Chef @ 8:25 am

This is a great recipe if you are expecting guests, or you want to welcome someone to the neighborhood.  Next time someone moves in, take this over to them and you will be sure to make instant friends.  I would suggest making homemade bread to make this a sure hit.
