'Julie and Julia' Bruschetta

So have you seen the 'Julie and Julia 'movie? It is a must see movie for anyone who loves to cook and blog! The movie is really fun, but may leave you with certain cravings! There was a scene in the movie where Julie was making bruschetta for dinner for herself and her hubby. She toasted the bread in a pan of butter until it was crispy and then loaded on the tomato mixture. Her husband devoured it and kept oohing and aughing over it.
I can't believe we have not posted this recipe, as Chels, Mal and I have all made and love this.

Julie and Julia Bruschetta
For the tomato topping:
Red and orange juicy fresh garden tomatoes,
Chopped Fresh basil (a couple leaves)
Fresh garlic, minced (a couple)
Kosher salt to taste
Extra Virgin Olive oil (1-2 tsp)
Let this sit while you prepare the toast:
Heat a skillet on the stove top on medium high. Butter both sides of a slice of french bread, or toast in pan of melted butter. When the toast is done, top with the tomato topping and ENJOY!!
