Ingredients:
10-12 tomatoes (medium size, fresh) peeled and diced
3 cloves garlic (fresh), peeled and pressed
1/2 c. basil (fresh) chopped (can use more if desired)
salt to taste
2 T. olive oil (extra virgin)
Directions:
Mix all ingredients together and allow to sit 30-60 minutes before serving. Serve over whole-wheat Italian bread that has been sliced, brushed with olive oil, and grilled in a hot skillet. Yields 12 slices.
TIP: You can also use this topping for a main dish. Instead of serving on top of bread, try pouring it over hot pasta such as angel hair or penne.
