Tomato Bruschetta is a quick and easy meal or appetizer to pull together with produce from your garden at this time of year in Southern Ontario. Bonus points if you serve it on homemade sourdough bread.
Ingredients
There are so few ingredients in this recipe, so you want to be sure they are at their best. I like to mix varieties of tomatoes to add to the flavour. Not all tomatoes taste the same, this is something you learn firsthand when growing your own food. The types seen at the grocery store are often not selected for flavour but for other traits such as being easy to transport or highly productive.
