I wish I had taken a picture of some of this... Oh well, you'll have to use your imagination. Maren and I had roast, farm-fresh corn, and bruschetta for Sunday dinner. OK, I didn't grow the corn, but some farmer close by did, and oh, was it tasty. (I didn't raise the steer for the roast either.) But I did grow the tomatoes and basil for the bruschetta. And it was extra tasty!! So simple too. Just peel, seed, and dice several tomatoes. Drain off excess juice. Mix in freshly grated garlic, chopped basil, salt, pepper, and olive oil. You can also add a splash of balsamic vinegar if you like. Slice a baguette, spread a little olive oil on, then toast in broiler or on the grill. Top the bread slices with the tomato mixture. Yum-O (for all you Rachael Ray fans out there)!
p.s. a pet peeve of mine is when bruschetta is pronounced incorrectly--it doesn't have a "sh" sound in the middle, it's "sk". Like as in school. JSYK :)
