Spinach & Prosciutto Bruschetta

This was rated by my kids. I'd like to try it again with some dry white wine, but it didn't seem like it needed it.

Ingredient

Food ration :

12 servings

Cooking time :

20 mins

3/4 cup

Angel tomatoes, split lengthwise and laterally

extra virgin olive oil, for frying an to coat bread

2 1/2 tbsp

dressing with roasted garlic in the title, enough to garnish the plate

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Preheat oven or toaster oven to 400°F.

* Step 2

Cut your bread in thick, diagonal slices.

* Step 3

Put some EVOO in a small dish, add some minced garlic, and use a basting brush to coat both sides of the bread. Set aside.

* Step 4

Most sweet onions I find in the store are pretty big so I only used 1/4 of one...it was the perfect amount. Anyway, dice the onion and add to a pan coated with EVOO.

* Step 5

Sauté the onions until they grow translucent.

* Step 6

Cut the tomatoes up. This felt like it took a friggin long time to me, so be patient...it'll be worth it.

* Step 7

Dice the parsley.

* Step 8

Cut the prosciutto into small pieces and keep them separate... they will tend to stick together and "keep it in the family". Not in a West Virginia type of way, just in a nose-in-the-air "you're not good enough to hang out with us" type of way. Snobs. What was I saying? Oh yeah, make sure the snobby pieces of pig butt get mixed in with everything else when cooking.

* Step 9

Add the tomatoes, parsley, garlic, spinach, the prosciutto, and some more EVOO to the pan.

* Step 10

Add the bread to your oven and bake until the crust gets crispy. Flip as necessary to get an even toasting. Remember that really perfectly golden toast mom would make when you were a kid an it'd compliment your fluffy eggs she just made you so perfectly? That's the kind of doneness you not on this...not the toast that dad would make...completely black and could be used as a weapon if you found yourself in a fight with rabid ninja bunnies. Oh sure they look cute, but let this freaks get close to you with a katana and see what happens...

* Step 11

Sauté bruschetta until the spinach has wilted, ensuring you've tossed the mixture several times to mix and heat evenly.

* Step 12

Break out the plates.

* Step 13

Add the roasted garlic to two spots on a plate and top with two pieces of bread. Oh crap, the bread!

* Step 14

remove the bread from the oven. Avoid harsh language and explain to the kids in the room daddy just got a little upset and to return to their twirling in circles until they fall down activity. Assure them everything is fine.
