Description
Fertilizing the lawn with pastured turkeys,
We have the barn back and are busy drying garlic,
9 weeks and less than .25" of rain, TOTAL,
Nugget, Snowflake and nameless are growing up,
Hermione is in heat again and piglets are ready for a move,
We eat good: Bruschetta recipe
1 loaf fresh baguette or Italian bread
2-3 different fresh picked tomatoes
2-3 T good olive oil
2-3 cloves garlic (mashed)
3-4 springs each of fresh oregano, basil and parsley all chopped fine
Fresh cracked black pepper and salt to taste
(optional) fresh grated hard Italian cheese (your choice)
In a bowl combine all ingredients and stir together. Cut bread into slices. Spray with olive oil and place on a medium hot grill until grill marks appear. Spray exposed side of bread with more olive oil and flip. Immediately place heaping spoonfuls of tomato mixture on the bread and close the grill cover for about 2-3 minutes. Remove and consume with beer, wine or cold ice tea!
