recipe: bruschetta

this is my fav bruschetta recipe - Double Tomato Bruschetta from allrecipes.com (tweaked slightly). the bread is just toasted (and soft) enough, and the balsamic / cheese / tomato / basil ratio is just right. the best part of it is that this doesn't have any giant hunks of ingredient on it that peel off all awkwardly when you try to eat it. i've had a lot of bruschetta that does that and it's just GD awkward, then it's all falling over your face.

ingredients list:
- 6 roma tomatoes, chopped
- 1/2 cup sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, diced
- 3 cloves minced garlic
- 1/8 cup olive oil
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1/4 cup fresh basil, roughly chopped
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper
- 1 french baguette
- 2 cups shredded mozz cheese

to make: in large bowl, combine all ingredients EXCEPT the baguette and mozz cheese. allow mixture to sit for 10 minutes; meanwhile, preheat oven to broiler setting.

cut baguette into 3/4 inch slices. arrange slices in single layer on baking sheet, then broil for 2 minutes, until slightly brown. add tomato mixture on top of each baguette slice, then top with mozz cheese. broil for 3 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
