There is a potluck lunch at work tomorrow and being as busy as I am, I completly forgot about it until late tonight. I have the reputation of always coming with one of those dishes that everyone wants the recipe for so I had to come up with something that they would all love. After a quick stop at the grocery store, I decided on my famous quick and easy bruchetta.

Bruchetta is a salad that consists mainly of tomatoes and feta cheese and makes a great appetizer, side salad or a topping to anything bland such as a lettuce salad or chicken. There are many complicated recipes out there but mine has been tried and tested and developed into a super simple recipe…mainly from lack of money, ingredients and patience, but nevertheless, it is one of the best bruchetta’s around!

Quick and Easy Bruchetta

3-4 medium tomatoes

1 clove garlic chopped

small handful cilantro, chopped

1/2 cup feta cheese, drained and crumbled (I like to use sundried tomato feta but plain works too)

Chop tomatoes into 1/2 inch dice. Add garlic, cilantro and feta cheese. Mix together. Yup…it’s that simple! You can serve on toast, as a salad, spoon onto chicken or pork chops.
