My only complaint about this recipe isthe bread was a bit dry next time i will probably brush some olive oil infused with gralic onto the toasted baugette slices. I did like that mozzerella was sprinkled on then melted on top of the tomatoes. It kept the tomatoe mixture in place while you bit into it. I made this for my dad for dinner tonight and he thought it was great, even though he's not a big bruschetta fan. I will definately use this recipe again.
I used 5 plum tomatoes, about 1/4 red onion, 1/2 tsp dry basil, 1/2 tsp minced fresh garlic, a dash of oregano, and topped finished brushetta with feta cheese crumbles. Original recipe has too much onion for our taste.
I like my bread a little crispy for bruschetta so I broiled the slices for 5 minutes and then topped with everything but the cheese.
It is very fast and easy. I personally thought it could use a little more seasoning. It was good I will keep this one.
I think olive oil is a missing ingredient here--I drizzled it on before adding the cheese. Also shredded parmesan is our personal preference with bruschetta to mozzerella. More traditional for a bruschetta. Otherwise this is the only recipe for bruschetta I've found with all the ingredients of my memory: garlic onion basil & oregano--not just tomatoes & cheese. Thanks!!
OUT OF THIS WORLD!! My picky mother and husband both loved this. My mother who rarely eats a bite of bread ate two pieces. I did make a couple of previously suggested changes; added a tablespoon of olive oil and a teaspoon of balsamic vinegar. I tried it two ways; both with a little butter added before toasting and without and it was better without the addition of butter. I used slices of cheese and think they would be better than using shredded. Loved it so much that I plan on making it as soon as the menu would allow it!! Delicious!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is really good... I made a couple of changes and minced some black olives and added it to the tomato mixture and also added a splash of olive oil..On the bread I spread a very thin layer of Jalapeno garlic spread..I also used shredded mozarella..It was so good we have had it twice this week..It goes great with the "Tomato Chicken Parmesan" recipe from this sight...

I made it last night and it was very nice. As a garlic lover I added 3 large cloves instead of the one and I used home made Italian herb bread instead.
Wonderful taste! I added just about a teaspoon of oil and a teaspoon of red wine vinegar. It adds extra flavor!
I thought this was only so so.
