Need a way to use those garden cherry tomatoes? Try this classic staple that is both quick and easy, but sure to be a crowd favorite.
Cherry Tomato Bruschetta
Description
Anyone else have a tomato plant (or two) that is growing more tomatoes than you know what to do with? Bruschetta is a classic appetizer that almost everyone can get behind. Typically, it’s made with a larger tomato, diced in small pieces, but I had so many cherry tomatoes, I thought a little spin on the classic wouldn’t hurt. It’s really quick and easy to make and you can easily feed more than 12 by doubling the recipe. You could also choose a different bread that creates a larger slice if you don’t want bite size pieces. With only a few ingredients, it is still packed with flavor and a great happy hour bite for those summer evenings!
