Resurrection of the Blawg and the Conquering of Bruschetta!

I don't feel comfortable rambling on facebook....and I felt like it...and then I remembered.....MY BLOG!! So, here I am....going to, FIRST OF ALL, chronicle my Bruschetta recipes and things about it. Last night, I brushed olive oil on one side of a diagonally sliced baguette.....toasted it. Flipped the sliced and brushed on olive oil AND freshly minced garlic....then, topped it with a chunk of fresh mozzarella. Broiled. Rack too close....bread got toasted LONG before the mozz. was fully melted. So.........TONIGHT! I'm going to do the same thing, only lowering the rack a notch. Then, I'm gonna top it with this nice tapenade-like salsa mixture of: Finely chopped roma tomatoes Finely chopped red onion Minced garlic Ribboned fresh basil Splash of Balsamic Vinegar A TBSP of NICE Olive oil. I can't BELIEVE that my friends on facebook "liked" the plate that I displayed last night's endeavor! It was a quick pic-take, but tonight, I'll plan better! STAY TUNED!!
