A lovely recipe for bruschetta bread with roma tomatoes, garlic, onion, lemon juice and olive oil, topped with feta and oregano.
By Steve Cylka
Last Sunday was Mothers day and we debated going out to a restaurant to celebrate. They are usually so busy on that day we therefore decided to have a nice meal at home. On the Sunday afternoon we stopped by Old Navy so my wife could use a gift card she received from the kids. Next to it was an East Side Mario’s and the line up outside was so large it confirmed to us our choice to eat at home was wise!
Home cooked food is always good, right???
Bruschetta bread is quite possibly the dish most requested in our house. Any time that I ask my wife what she wants for dinner, her go to response is bruschetta bread. So, it was quite obvious that when Mothers Day approached, she would be eager to have it as part of the dinner menu. I was happy to make it as bruschetta bread is easy to make, bright and fresh with wonderful flavour.
