Green Tomato Bruschetta



If you are wondering what to do with the abundant harvest of green tomatoes from your garden, why not try the very easy bruschetta. It takes only five ingredients to make this appetizer that it so addictive you will eat them all day.



I prepared bruschetta using red tomatoes yesterday and I started thinking why not use the green ones. Both bruschettas actually were equally good but the one from the green tomatoes has the advantage of not getting the bread soggy and kept its form. It has a certain tartness to it too which rivals the sweetness of the red ones. Combined with garlic and fresh basil, the green ones held its own. Pure bliss.



I am concocting all sorts of ways to use green tomatoes these days, my nails are turning green. Ha,ha.
