Bruschetta

Here you go Carrie. I added another topping that's good but takes longer then just a pre-bought pesto.

2 baguettes sliced and brushed with melted butter then broiled until light brown

Cheese layer
-4 oz cream cheese
-4 oz goat cheese
-2 cloves garlic pressed
Mix well and top all baguette slices after removed from broiler.

Toppings
Set these out in bowls so they can be added according to preference.

-Pesto- bought in the refrigerated section of the grocery store usually next to the refrigerated pickles- These are usually good enough by them selves just mix well so the olive oil gets incorporated.

-Tomato/Basil-
2 tomatoes diced and drained of juice
1 large sprig (about 6 leaves) fresh basil, chopped
1 TBL olive oil
pinch of salt and pepper
1 oz shredded mozzarella
Toss everything together and serve with baguettes.

-Alt. Tomato Basil from savingdinner.com
Serves 6-8

2 large tomatoes (or 6 smallish Roma tomatoes)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
2 cloves garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
1 pinch of sugar
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan
Salt and pepper to taste

In a medium bowl, mix together the tomatoes, basil, garlic, olive oil and vinegar. Salt and pepper to taste, then mix again. Now sprinkle the pinch of sugar, mix one more time and let sit covered on the countertop for a chance to let the flavors meld. Yum!
