Tomato and Herb Bruschetta

6 Servings—Dairy-free

 

Bruschetta is a simple but superb Italian appetizer of

thick slices of toasted bread spread with a

garden-fresh topping of ripe red tomatoes, basil,

garlic and olive oil. It’s a wonderful accompaniment

to the chowder in both flavor and color.

 

2 tsp. chopped fresh oregano or 1/2 tsp. dried

1 Tbs. extra-virgin olive oil

1 Tbs. balsamic vinegar

1 tsp. fresh lemon juice

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Six 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch-thick slices crusty bread,

grilled or toasted

1/3 cup chopped fresh basil

1 1/2 lbs. ripe plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped

1 small clove garlic, minced

In medium bowl, gently mix tomatoes, garlic, basil,

oregano, oil, vinegar and lemon juice. Season with

salt and pepper.

 

To serve, cut grilled bread slices in half. Set slices

on serving plates and spoon tomato mixture over them.
