    How to make bruschetta

    Start out by dicing your tomatoes and red onion. Then mince the garlic clove and add the three ingredients to a medium bowl. I use this chopper and it saves me so much time in the kitchen!

    Next, it's time to chop your fresh basil. I just love the smell of basil as it's being chopped. It fills the kitchen with a wonderful aroma.

    Add the basil to the bowl that contains the tomatoes, onions and garlic. Mix all the ingredients together in the bowl.

    Frequently asked questions

    How do I store this bruschetta appetizer?

    Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. This will taste best if you eat it right after you make it.

    Can I serve bruschetta warm?

    You can, especially if you are using it as a topping for chicken. If you are serving it as an appetizer or topping for bread, I prefer it cold.

    I don't have roma tomatoes. What other tomatoes can I use in bruschetta?

    I think roma tomatoes make the best bruschetta, but plum tomatoes work well too.

      Can this be made ahead and refrigerated for later. I am thinking of doing it in the morning to be served that evening.
