In addition to leaving Buffalo with some great memories from the weekend, Howie's mom sent me home with almost 5 lb.s of beautiful tomatoes fresh-off-the-vine from her garden. I gladly accepted her offer, but quickly realized that this pile of tomatoes was more than I could ever need for sandwiches or salads in the week or so that they would stay fresh. What did I do to solve the problem? It was a no brainer! I made a huge batch of homemade tomato sauce with fresh basil, garlic, onions, herbs - all of the Italian classics. I even reserved some and used it for homemade bruschetta! You gotta try my recipes while they're still in season...the end of summer couldn't taste better!
If you made the homemade tomato sauce...skip the whole first half of the bruschetta recipe before the French bread is involved. The sauce does double duty!
