Dotty, this is a terrific Bruschetta recipe! Fresh tomatoes combined with the garlic and onions for a burst of flavour. We really enjoyed it at lunch! Thanks for a simple recipe that is sure to please. Made for Aussie Swap :)

Wordeful, appetizer! I skip the olives cause I didn't wanted any at the time.I used both french bread and toast bread. Excellent, it will be often at our house from now on. Thanks, so much! Made it for 12 Days of Chirstmas Swap!
