Number Of Ingredients 9

6 large tomatoes, diced
½ large sweet Bermuda onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ tablespoons fennel seed
⅓ cup minced fresh basil
⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
salt and pepper to taste
1 (20 ounce) loaf French bread, sliced 1/2-inch thick
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing

  • In a bowl, mix together the tomatoes, onion, garlic, fennel seed, basil, 1/3 cup olive oil, salt, and pepper. Chill for at least 1 hour to blend the flavors.

This bruschetta is a winner! The fennel adds a unique and delicious flavor that I've never tasted before. I roasted the fennel a little longer than the recipe called for, which gave it a caramelized flavor that was out of this world. I also used a va
