Recipe Review..."Bruschetta" Kathiey's Version

Welcome to Foodie Friday.  today I am returning to an old recipe, from about 10 years ago.  I did not rate this recipe so I don't remember what I gave it but I remember liking it.

Kathiey's Bruschetta 

(Make it your own by adjusting the ingredients)

First off just what is bruschetta?  Lets ask wikipedia....

Bruschetta (Italian pronunciation:brus 'ket a) is an antipasto from central Italy whose origin dates to at least the 15th century. It consists of roasted bread rubbed with garlic and topped with extra-virgin olive oil, salt and pepper. Variations may include toppings of spicy red pepper, tomato, vegetables, beans, cured meat, and/or cheese; the most popular recipe outside of Italy involves basil, fresh tomato, garlic and onion or mozzarella. Bruschetta is usually served as a snack or appetizer. 

After searching several recipes I decided to make my own version.  I gathered my ingredients....

Tomatoes are fresh from the garden...

Fresh mozzarella cheese...Yum:-)

Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Balsamic Vinegar,
Salt and Pepper, Loaf of Italian Bread.....(many folks like to use a baguette for their bread of choice but I prefer a softer bread.  Many toast the bread before adding the cheese but again I did not want crunchy bread)

I did mine a bit differently from most of the recipes you find.  I did stick with the Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinegar.  
The recipe I used called for 1/4 cup of Olive Oil and 2 Tablespoons of Balsamic Vinegar.  It tasted more like oil than vinegar to me so I just kept adding the Vinegar until I liked the flavor.  I also added salt and pepper to taste.  Most folks add a bunch of garlic but I am not crazy about garlic.

Yum-Makes me hungry just looking at this photo.

Happy Eating Everyone!
