I have also found that rubbing butter on the toasted bread helps keep them from getting soggy

Hi Anthony. Good recipe. Did you know that bruschetta actually refers to the piece of bread that's rubbed with garlic, and not the topping itself? When I learned that, it blew my mind.

You know I like to use non-salted non-seasoned petite diced canned tomatoes. If you cut your own tomatoes they tend to get mealy and the skin is not a pleasant taste. Great recipie. Perhaps you could do another one for ceviche?
