10 minutes
Bruschetta with tomatoes is a delicious Italian appetizer, as well as the easiest way to put something on the tooth, feel a little full, but do without overeating. In addition, bruschetta always looks very elegant. And their preparation takes a minimum of time. The most popular combination is toasted bread, tomatoes, garlic and basil. If there is no time to blanch tomatoes in a frying pan, you can replace them with sun-dried tomatoes. To prepare Italian bruschetta, it is better to take ciabatta - its slices will absorb olive oil well after frying.
