Bruschetta

Bruschetta is an Antipasto dish from Italy consisting of grilled bread rubbed with garlic, olive oil and salt. There are a variety of toppings used - tomatoes, vegetables, cured meat, cheese etc. It is served as a snack or appetizer.

Here is my version of Bruschetta.
I tried Bruschetta for the first time, during my trip to Germany in April 2015 & absolutely Loved it !!!
Once back home, I tried this recipe at home & it was a instant hit & everyone at home love it as much as I do!!!
A very quick appetizer recipe. Enjoy !!!!
