Easy Bruschetta

Easy to make and you can toss it with hot pasta, put on a burger with mozzarella, top a grilled portabella mushroom, the list goes on and on...
Adjust the proportions until you like what you taste.

Tomatoes - try to get them fresh from the vine for a much better flavor
1 clove of garlic/ per 3 medium tomatoes
basil - handful/ per 3 medium tomatoes
olive oil
salt

Chop the tomatoes and drain in a colander. Dice garlic very fine (if you don't like raw garlic flavor, roast it or drop it in boiling water for a minute or so to smooth out the bite). Julienne the basil and toss with the tomatoes and garlic. Season with salt and add a drizzle of olive oil.
Serve over toasted bread or any of the suggestions above.
