Shari's Bruchetta

Ingredients

1 baguette (white or wheat)
olive oil
1 clove garlic
vine-ripened tomatoes
fresh basil
salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Slice the whole baguette in 1/2 inch thick pieces at an angle. Spread a little butter or olive oil on each piece. Toast them on the stove in a frying pan. Turn them over and toast the non-oiled/buttered side as well. Then rub a clove of garlic over the top. Just rubbing it gets enough off to give it lots of flavor. Chop up on-the-vine tomatoes and fresh basil leaves and mix with a little olive oil, salt and pepper. Put that on top of your hot bread slices and enjoy. My kids eat this ALLLLL the time. It's really healthy and delicious!
