Savory Bruschetta

I have not known anyone who does not appreciate a well made Bruschetta. A traditional Bruschetta is made with chopped fresh tomatoes, garlic, basil, olive oil, and balsamic vinegar, served on toasted slices of French or Italian bread. I was flipping through the Costco magazine and came across this savory version from Delano Farms and had to absolutely try it. It looked absolutely amazing and refreshing with grapes being in abundance right now.
