This bruschetta-ish recipe is one I made up about a year ago, and it’s so easy and delicious.

You will need:

A can of tomatoes, diced

A can of black olives, sliced

Balsamic Vinegar

Italian herbs

EVOO (Extra Virgin Olive Oil)

Italian or french bread, sliced

Cheese - Mozzarella or whatever you have (I used some sort of mix of cheeses for this one)

Brush the bread slices with olive oil and let them get toasty in the oven (370ish degrees Fahrenheit). While that’s happening, drain the tomatoes and mix them with the olives. Drizzle them with balsamic vinegar and sprinkle with Italian herbs. Everything is “to taste” so be sure to taste it!

When the toast is toasty, spoon on the tomato topping and sprinkle liberally with cheese. Pop it all back into the oven until the cheese is melted and everything is warm and gooey. Eat it warm. Or cold. With spaghetti. Or lasagna, or soup, or salad, or by itself as a meal… you know. However you like it.

And you WILL like it.
