Easy Bruschetta with Fresh Mozzarella

I have been making this bruschetta recipe for years. Its very easy and tastes great. Its an altered version of Giada De Laurentiis's Tomato, Basil and Mozzarella Bruschetta recipe. I love bringing this to parties and it made a great addition to my sister's bridal shower menu.

Here is the recipe:

Easy Bruschetta with Fresh Mozzarella

1 (28)oz can whole peeled tomatoes-drained
4 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 C fresh basil
6 peeled cloves of garlic
1 lb package fresh mozzarella
Salt to taste
2 french baguettes

Heat oven to 375.

Pour tomatoes, olive oil, basil and 5 cloves of garlic into the food processor. Pulse a few times until everything is chopped finely, but not liquefied. Add salt to taste and pulse to mix. Pour into serving container.

Slice fresh mozzarella into small cubes. Stir into bruschetta.

Slice baguettes into 1/2 inch slices. Toast in oven for 4-5 minutes. When done, take one clove of garlic and rub on all the bread slices while still warm.

Enjoy!
