Simple Bruschetta Recipe

So a few months back, I replicated a simple recipe for Bruschetta from the Pillsbury website. It was truly a simple and delicious recipe, so I thought I would share it with you (with some of my minor edits to it!)

I changed a few things, that I think make the recipe a little better… Here you go!
