BEST EVER BRUSCHETTA
I went through a major bruschetta phase and tried many many recipes until I found the perfect one. This was originally Guy Fieri's but is slightly adapted to my taste after making it about a billion times. Cookingt time is marinating time.

Steps:
- In a small skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and stir, lightly frying for about a minute, removing before the garlic gets too brown (it can be golden). Pour the garlic and oil into a mixing bowl and allow to cool slightly.
- Add the red and yellow tomatoes, balsamic and basil to the bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to combine, and then taste and add more basil if needed, and more salt if needed (don't over salt, though!) Cover and refrigerate for an hour or two if you have the time.
- Cut the baguette into diagonal slices to allow for the most surface area possible. Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet and grill half the bread on both sides, making sure they're nice and buttery. Cook until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and the other half of the bread.
- To serve, give the tomato mixture a final stir, and then spoon generously over the slices of bread. Serve on a big platter as a first course or appetizer.

Steps:
- For The Bruchetta:.
- Mix together tomatoes, basil, garlic, and cheese.
- drizzle olive oil and vingar over the tomato mixture. You don't want to skimp but you don't want to go over board either. For 3 cups of tomato mixture I would reccomend about a cup of liquid. Appx 3/4 cup of oil and a 1/4c of vinigar but this is just an estimate. Go by your own preference.
- Stir the ingredients.Taste it and add more oil, vinigar, as needed. You can also ad a little garlic salt if you think it needs salt.
- For The Garlic Toast:.
- Cut the bread slices in half so they are snack sized (if you used italian bread. If you use french bread the slices should be perfect sized).
- Spread slices on a broiler pan, drizzle w/ olive oil, sprinkle with garlic powder, parsley, and a touch of paprika. Put under the broiler untli toasted but not burned.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients, especially the bread and tomatoes.
- Choose a sturdy bread that can hold up to the toppings.
- Toast the bread lightly to give it a crispy texture.
- Use ripe, flavorful tomatoes.
- Chop the tomatoes into small pieces so they are easy to eat.
- Add a variety of toppings to your bruschetta, such as fresh basil, garlic, olive oil, and cheese.
- Don't overload the bruschetta with toppings, or it will become soggy.
- Serve the bruschetta immediately after it is made.
- Bruschetta is a great appetizer or snack, and it can also be served as a light meal.
