I love bruschetta, and had to try this one because of all the rave reviews! Overall, it was really nice. Fresh basil made a difference, for sure! I do have to say that I'm a huge garlic fan, and still thought there was too much garlic in this recipe. I used 3 rather large cloves. I would recommend using three small cloves or 2 large cloves. Otherwise, it was PERFECT!

Are you ready to be the talk of the party-try this recipe! Goes together easy and has a zesty bite. I didn't have sun dried tomatos so I substituted 1/2 packet of splenda which did the trick! I also sprayed the baguette with olive oil broiled and then added mozzarella and broiled. I let the guests add their share of bruschetta. DELICIOUS!

It was a hit! Only change was I used a little champagne vinegar instead if balsamic (I ran out). Thanks for the recipe.

Great flavor combinations and super easy to prepare. My guests loved this app. I think you could easily go without the cheese as well - the tomato mix carries the dish well.

This recipe is amazingly delicious! After using sun dried tomatoes packed in oil, I found no need for additional olive oil. Adding the fresh basil is a must and definitely kicks the flavor up a notch. I recommend using fresh mozzarella and melting a slice on the bread and adding the mixture on top. I brought this as an appetizer to a friend's birthday and there was not a single tomato slice left over.

Bruschetta is standard in my household, it's made for holiday's and a lot during the summer for a light dinner. I have never melted cheese on bruschetta before but I have cut up fresh mozzarella and put that in the mix. I loved the addition of the sun-dried tomatoes, I didn't have anything left over however the melted cheese is not really necessary. It was delicious without the cheese all together.

Very good, and easy. I think I might try it with parmesan instead of mozzarella next time to add even more flavour. Thanks!

Really good! Followed the recipe except for adding extra garlic. I think next time I will omit the oil and just leave it with the sundried tomato oil-that would've been plenty! I had extra oil left after loading up the bread so I soaked some smaller pieces of bread in it and made croutons-yummy.

Make the recipe as is !! It really works !!! To make it authentic I used ciabatta bread. Sliced it, brushed the slices of bread lightly with garlic oil, put them under the grill for a few minutes untill crisp. Top with the tomato mix and SLICES of mozzarella (couldn't get grated the first time and the sliced mozzarella turned out GREAT) Fresh Roma tomatoes give a fabulous flavour. This is a no-fail-favourite !!!!

Loved this recipe! I did make it a little easier and spiced it up a bit. I used 2 cans of diced tomatoes with green chilies (drained) in substitution for the 6 romas. It was easier than cutting up the tomatoes and added a little heat to the bruschetta. I plan to add a small can of olives next time for another twist!
