Serves 4-6 as entree
Bruschetta is an antipasto hailing from Italy and consists of grilled bread rubbed with garlic. You can play around with different variations of the topping. We love anchovies on this variation, but, if they are not to your taste leave them out, or serve them on the side for other people to add if they like. Try this for your next get together and get your guests mouths watering.
So simple and so tasty.
