Whygal's Review
A great combination for burgers! I paninied them rather than serve on grilled bread and we loved the end result. The accompanying spiced oven fries were just ok.
Love it!
I have always loved bruschetta. I like a good burger too. This is just the perfect combination of the two. I will definitely be adding this to the menu again in the future. I added just a little bit of balsamic vinegar to the bruschetta because it's an ingredient you just can't leave out (in my opinion).
Delicious.
Great combo! If you use great tasting tomatoes and bread as well as quality meat, this will be full of flavor!
