The topping for this simple Fresh Tomato Bruschetta appetizer can be put together ahead of time and refrigerated. We also love it on top of grilled chicken sandwiches, hamburgers and homemade pizza. —Samantha Cass, Swartz Creek, Michigan

Fresh Mozzarella FactsCompared to the more firm texture of most commercially produced mozzarella, fresh mozzarella is soft and moist. The flavor is mild, delicate and somewhat milky. Fresh mozzarella is usually shaped into balls and stored in brine. After buying fresh mozzarella, it should be refrigerated in the brine and eaten within a few days.

I have made this several times since July 4th. I made as stated, only using fresh tomatoes instead of plum as they are so abundant here in NC now. Because of excessive heat here and I am on beach, I would not turn on broiler to toast and served on sliced baguettes with fresh mozz.. no leftovers. One thing I do, do is chop the tomatoes small so you can get a lot on bread and they don't fall off. It past the test with my friend's 95 yr old Italian mother, so that says something.
