Yummy. We enjoyed this version of one of our favorite finger foods. It was quick and easy to prepare and a nice change of pace from the usual basil. Thanks for sharing. Made for What's on the Menu.

Yummy! We really enjoyed this uniquely different bruschetta. It was a nice change from the basil that is usually used in bruschetta. I only used 1/2 of an onion, and only a small amount of the olive oil. The recipe instructions state: "brush with remaining olive oil", but there is no mention of where to use the olive oil initially. So, I added approx. 2 TBSP. of the oil to the tomato, onion, and rosemary mixture. Then, I brushed one side of each bread slice with a small amount of the oil and popped them under the broiler to toast (on one side only-personal preference). After removing from the broiler, I rubbed the slices with the garlic (generously), and topped with the tomato mixture. My family loved this and it was gone in a hurry. Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe. *Made for 2009 Football Pool*

This is a fantastic recipe for Bruschetta. I followed the recipe except I used a salad onion instead, and it tasted wonderful on fresh crusty toasted bread. I made this for lunch and we enjoyed it on a warm sunny day, outside in the garden....what better way to spend a day off on the weekend! Relaxation and a wonderful tasting Bruschetta1 Thanks morgainegeiser for a lovely recipe to enjoy!
