Bruschetta

What you will need:
5 Tomatoes what ever is in season (Plum if winter)
1 clove garlic crushed
2 tablespoons olive oil (Extra virgin if possible)
Fresh Basil cut in strips.
salt to taste

Take Basil and pick off 6 leaves and stack them on top of eachother. Roll them lengthwise. Slice into small pieces and this will create your strips.

Add Basil into bowl with Olive oil and garlic. Mix and set aside for about 15 minutes so the garlic and basil can flavor the oil. Dice tomatoes into bite sized pieces. Mix tomatoes in with oil mixture.

Serving Suggestions: Serve on toast, Pasta, with Crackers, or even add to grilled chese sandwich. Top with a little Parmesean cheese if you like.
