    I like the addition of the cheese, though I have never had it that way. How bad is added cheese after all. :) Thank you for adding a new twist and taking the time to respond!! Feedback is always great .

    Ten odd years ago, we went to Italy, and stayed in Rome. The food was fabulous, of course, and I sort of deconstructed the bruschetta as follows:

    Italian bread, sliced about 3/4" thick, buttered in garlic butter.

    Gently fry until golden, adding a thin slice of parmesan or similar cheese after flipping, to allow the cheese to melt, and a very thin slice of Italian ham on top of that.

    Chopped San Romera tomato, olive oil, basil, and minced garlic, stirred together, with a dash of salt and pepper, that has 'sat' for a little bit (like before you get busy with the bread), and top it up, and you'll be somewhere near "my world", not that your's is terribly far apart!
