Bruschetta Florentine
"A great appetizer for a little larger crowd or scale it down for a little get-together. I'm waiting to try other combinations like mushrooms and maybe a red onion as well. Fresh spinach would work just as well with this recipe and a small amount of garlic could take the place of the flavor of the spray."

I'm a med school student that loves to cook. You might have guessed though that being a college student doesn't give me a whole lot of money to spend on ingredients and such. So instead, whenever I go home, I try to cook something new for parents.
