1 T salt
1 T pepper
1 T sugar
2 T basil (preferably fresh)
1/8 T minced garlic
2 large chopped tomatoes
1/2 c. extra virgin olive oil
Directions:
First, remove the juice and seeds from the inside of the tomatoes. It will be juicy enough with the olive oil. Chop the tomatoes, set aside. Mix salt, pepper, sugar, basil, garlic, and extra virgin olive oil. Pour the mixture over the tomatoes.
Toss the tomatoes to make sure they are all coated, and let stand in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to let the flavors blend.
This is great to go on Italian breads, including garlic bread. It's wonderful with some Parmesan or mozzarella cheese sprinkled on top.
Bruschetta is a great appetizer or side dish to go along with all of your italian favorites.
