I love a good "Toast", Bruschetta, or Crostini, recipe! Honestly, top anything on a toasted piece of rustic bread and I am all over it!
During a recent trip to Austin, Texas I was fortunate to have dinner at The Grove Wine Bar and Kitchen. If you ever get the chance, you must go! Their wine selection is impressive and their menu is even more incredible. They actually have an area on their menu dedicated to Bruschetta...10 different Bruschettas!
And speaking of toasts (no pun intended)...it's National Red Wine Day! I can't think of a better combination than a wonderful red wine and platter of bruschetta or crostinis!
I found this recipe at my sister-in-law's house. She had the magazine on her table and the beautiful and vibrant cover caught my eye. These are so good and super easy for a last minute entertaining appetizer or a side with a nice salad.
Tomato-Burrata Toasts
Courtesy of Real Simple Magazine, July 2019
Toss 1 lb. sliced tomatoes with 1/3 cup olive oil and 1/2 tsp. flaky salt. Let stand for 5 minutes. Drizzle 8 thick slices toasted crusty bread with olive oil and rub with garlic; top with tomatoes (do not throw away the oil) and 8 ounces torn burrata.
Top with flaky salt, the leftover tomato oil, 2 Tbl fresh oregano leaves, and several grinds of freshly ground black pepper.
We recently discovered this Pinot Noir from 19 Crimes. Great price and really great red wine! Cheers!
