Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
- 0.25 cup Fresh basil leaves
- 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
- 2 large Garlic cloves
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Begin by thoroughly washing the cherry tomatoes, then gently pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Dice the cherry tomatoes into small, uniform pieces and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Chop the fresh basil leaves finely and add them to the bowl with the tomatoes.
Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely, then add them to the tomato mixture.
Pour the extra virgin olive oil and balsamic vinegar over the tomato mixture in the bowl.
Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Gently toss all the ingredients together until the tomatoes are evenly coated with the dressing and seasonings.
Grate the Parmesan cheese and sprinkle it over the mixture, folding it in gently so that it's well distributed throughout the bruschetta topping.
Allow the mixture to sit for at least 10 minutes at room temperature before serving, to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve atop keto-friendly bread or as a flavor-packed topping for grilled proteins like chicken or fish.
