We were happy to receive a thank you note from Courteney Cox-Arquette after she received our Go Green gift bags. These bags were sent to 15 eco-friendly celebrity parents. Thanks for acknowledging our efforts Courteney!
With all the parties I have been having and/or going to, I needed to have different appetizers and things to bring, etc… My mom made this bruchetta salad for me once and ever since, it has been a favorite of my family so I feel the need to share it with you. Recipe is very simple.
Ingredients:
Tomatoes
Parmesan Cheese
Olive Oil
Basil
Salt
Pepper
French Bread
Butter
Garlic salt
First you need to make garlic bread. Take your french bread and lather with butter, then sprinkle some garlic salt & parmesan cheese on top. Toast or broil until crunchy.
Cut tomatoes into larger chunks. Mix with salt, pepper and olive oil *just enough to coat*, and basil. Cut french bread into chunks and mix into tomato mixture. Lastly add chopped parmesan cheese and stir all together. Let stand for about 20 minutes to get the juices going to where it gets soaked up by the garlic bread.
Then season again until it reaches your satisfaction.
It is the simplest, yummiest bruchetta salad recipe ever. We will eat this over a regular green garden salad any day!

Being a work at home mom, it is important to help other work at home moms when they need it, support others by being there to answer questions, offer advice and “Share” tips and do’s and don’ts’ of business. We will get so much more in return if we just learn to ‘share’ what we have. There is enough of everything for everyone. There are enough customers, there are enough babies to utilize the products we make, and there is enough money to go around.
