“So what exactly do you eat?” Is there a vegetarian alive that doesn’t hear that on a weekly basis? I don’t know why, but that question always leaves me stumped. Maye it’s because it’s a stupid question.
Tonight I made fresh, delicious, organic bruschetta. Fresh, delicious, organic goodness - that’s what I eat!
This yummy, flavorful meal is so easy to make! It can easily be made vegan by omitting the cheese or using a dairy-free substitute. Try it and enjoy!
You will need:
- 1 loaf of crusty Italian bread
- 4 roma or plum tomatoes chopped or thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup of fresh mozzarella
- 1 large clove of garlic, crushed.
- 1 cup of fresh basil
- 1/2 cup of extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese
- 1teaspoon of salt
- a few pinches of pepper
Pesto recipe:
- wash and pat the fresh basil dry
- place in food processor, blender or mini-chopper with olive oil, garlic, salt and pepper and Parmesan cheese. Blend.
***Get all of your ingredients ready and tomatoes chopped or sliced before you begin toasting the bread, it makes life
easier!
- Preheat the oven to 375
- Slice bread and toast for 3-5 minutes, then remove the bread and turn the oven to broil
- layer the bread with pesto, tomato and mozzarella and place under the broiler for about 3 minutes or until cheese is melted
That’s it! It’s quick, easy and delicious! Let me know if you try the recipe!
Voila!
