Cheat's Bruschetta

When my best friend at the time was working in a kitchen, her boss made me some bruschetta. I couldn't tell him I didn't like tomatoes, and I'm glad I didn't. I picked out the ingredients he used and found an easy way to make it. Apparantly he also used lemon juice, but I find it tastes the same without it. Normally I would buy a French stick and toast rounds, but sometimes I buy a packet of bruschetta bread and use that for some extra flavour.

- tomatoes
- red onion
- basil
- garlic
- salt

- olive oil

1. As I have come to realize, the part I don't like of the tomato are the seeds. So remove seeds from tomatoes and dice up small.

2. Dice up the red onion as small as you can.

3. Add 1 clove of garlic and a little basil. In my case, 1 teaspoon of garlic and 1 long squeeze of basil.

4. Add enough olive oil to coat the salad. Add salt to taste.

For an extra flavour as well, When I went to Queensland, one of the restraunts poured a little bit of balsamic vinegar over the top as well. I must say it's quite nice. You can also use plain toasted bread instead of the fancy bread in my picture.
