Quick Breadstick Bruschetta plus a Star Fine Foods Giveaway

Quick Breadstick Bruschetta

Tomatoes are really one of my favorite tastes of summer.  They can brighten any dish.  I wish I could say that these sweet little tomatoes came from my garden.

I am still trying to get my garden to grow but I’ve had a few set backs with the weather and some critter invasions.  I am guessing it is the raccoons.  You wouldn’t think that those tiny little creatures could drive you to the point of wanting to declare war.  I was out watering and found a nice little tomato that they had picked took one bite out of and left on the ground.

Luckily I was able to find some nice little grape tomatoes at the grocery store.  I tossed the tomatoes in a skillet with some of the new Star Family Reserve Olive Oil with Rosemary and the new Star Farmers Market Ripe Olives.  The rosemary olive oil created the best aroma and my mouth was watering.  I picked out a few olives to tide me over until I finished my bruschetta.

I used the bruschetta topping over refrigerated breadsticks that I left rolled up to create  pinwheel shaped rolls.  Aren’t they beautiful?  Have them for a quick lunch, a great appetizer or even a wonderful side to pasta.
