Cheesy Bruschetta

This photo is of cheesy bruschetta bread about to be popped back in the oven for toasting. I love tomato bread! This is easy, delicious and serves a lot of people for very little money.

Slice French bread and toast in a 325 oven for 7 to 10 minutes until crisped. Mix 2 or 3 chopped tomatoes (or chopped cherry tomatoes), with salt and pepper, chopped fresh basil leaves, (or 1 tblsp dry basil), 1 smashed and chopped garlic clove and a drizzle of olive oil. Place a bit of the tomato mixture on top of each slice of toasted bread and then top with some grated cheddar, provolone and parmesan cheese. Increase the oven to 375 and bake until the cheese melts. This is delicious hot out of the oven or cooled to room temperature, so it’s good party food. Yum!
