Bruschetta Pomodoro Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Set the oven rack in the top part of the oven.
• Place sliced bread on rimmed baking sheets. Cook 10 minutes or until lightly toasted. Flip bread and toast 5 more minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a medium-sized bowl, place the olive oil, tomatoes, basil, 3 crushed garlic cloves, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
• Rub the 3 halved garlic cloves, cut side down, over every piece of toasted bread. Spoon a couple tablespoons of tomato mixture over each piece of toast and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cut the baguette in half lengthwise, place on a sheet tray and bake in the oven until lightly brown. Rub with the garlic cloves. Drizzle with 2 ounces of the olive oil and sprinkle with the Parmigiano-Reggiano. Return to oven to melt cheese.
• In a medium mixing bowl, add the tomatoes, minced garlic, basil, vinegar, remaining olive oil, salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly and let sit for 5 minutes at room temperature.
• Remove baguette from oven and top with the tomato mixture. Garnish with basil and Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Steps:

• Preheat the broiler.
• In a mixing bowl, combine the tomatoes, basil, garlic, oregano, red pepper, salt, pepper and olive oil. Use more olive oil, if necessary, to coat the entire mixture. Allow the mixture to sit for 10 minutes.
• Slice the bread. On a baking sheet, arrange the slices in a single layer. Brown both sides of the bread slightly in the oven. Remove the slices from the oven. Spread the tomato mixture on the slices. Broil 2 to 3 minutes, or until the mixture is hot but not cooked.

Steps:

• Mix chopped tomatoes, basil, garlic and oil. Allow to marinate for 30 minutes in refrigerator.
• When ready to serve, grill or toast bread to light brown consistency and top with tomato mixture.
