Note
- - "Bruschetta" (Italian toasts) is one of the best solutions for an afternoon snack or for beginning your meal, Italy-style. It can also be a dinner, especially when a great variety of them can be prepared.
- - If you don't like garlic, you can substitute it with chives and young fresh onions, finely chopped.
