Bruschetta

If you are looking for a quick, delicious, and fancy starter that will be a real crowd pleaser, then this recipe is for you. And it is especially for you, if like me, you are a garlic fan. However, if you have a garlic sensitivity, then this recipe can also be made without it.

​The key to this recipe is making sure you have fresh, fragrant tomatoes and of course good bread. The bread might be the most difficult piece to find, especially if you are trying to eat whole-grain foods while also ensuring there are no oils or sugar in the ingredient list. If you can't find a whole-grain baguette maybe try a different type of loaf, you can really use this recipe to top any type of bread you like. Just make sure to read the ingredients in the bread to keep the recipe healthy and OvercomingMS friendly.
