We finally got to the theater to see Julie and Julia. It's a movie all about food, blogging and Julia Child, so it's right up my alley. There were many gorgeous dishes in the movie, but there was one that I was still thinking about after leaving the theater. It was a simple bruschetta that the character Julie made but made with - you guessed it - fresh garden tomatoes and a little butter. I tossed together fresh chopped tomatoes, garden basil, a little garlic, olive oil and salt and pepper and loaded it onto thick slices of french bread that had been toasted in pan with a little melted butter. I think this is my new favorite tomato preparation. Seriously, I could eat this every day.

Butter in bruschetta!!! The Italian in me just died a little inside. Only extra virgin olive oil my friend :) I bet your tomatoes are good though. I want to see that movie too; it's debuting during the film festival here.
Love this simple recipe this weekend.. but my dish doesn't look as nice as the picture.. and I think you need to get a second career as a food styler..
