A brush with bruschetta...

Bruschetta is such a simple dish, yet waved under the nose of even the most cultivated pallette and it will be grabbed eagerly and barely swallowed before the eager eater begs for another...

I love it, I've never had it as good as when Italian friends threw it together after an impromptu visit from us and I have wondered since is there a special olive oil reserved to be bought by those with Italian passports alone?

  Anyway I often eat it for breakfast, nice bread topped with tomatoes - does it get better? No but sometimes it gets a bit different...

Here is something we enjoy sometimes for breakfast, Special Brunch Bruschetta!

Simply mix chopped plum tomatoes, chopped avocado and a tin of tuna in a mixture of olive oil, a tsp mayo, tsp balsamic, salt and pepper! Serve as a brunch dish, or as a starter... Replace the tuna with Boquerones or even cooked mushrooms for a more sophisticated twist!

It really sets you off on the right foot for the day!
