Tomatoes are a cancer fighting fruit. They also contain a bunch of fiber, which is great at regulating blood sugar and cholesterol. On top of that, they are also a fantastic source of Lycopene, Vitamin C, and Vitamin A. Woot, super food alert!
Bruschetta
serves 2 people, takes 10 minutes!
2 roma tomatoes
3-4 cloves of garlic
about a teaspoon of chopped fresh italian parsley
about a teaspoon of chopped fresh basil
salt to taste
2 tablespoons of olive oil (feel free to add more!)
french baguette* (those who are allergic to gluten can use any substitute for bread)
Slice the baguette into 1/2 inch slices and toast until they have a golden brown color on either side. Chop the tomatoes into cubes after removing the seeds and dice the garlic as small as you can make it or use a garlic crusher. Throw all ingredients in a bowl and mix around. Once all the tomatoes appear to be covered in olive oil, spoon the bruschetta onto the baguette slices and enjoy! :]
Happy eating!
