And giveaway winners!
You can't go wrong with recipes that combine juicy fresh tomatoes, balsamic vinegar, fresh basil and garlic! This quick to prepare recipe received the seal of approval from the whole family. Not a single leftover (so much for my lunch the next day)! It really is that good and the fact that it's quick to make is a bonus.
The original recipe (and many other fabulous healthy recipes) can be found at Gina's Skinny Taste. I modified the list of ingredients to taste.
Grilled Chicken Bruschetta

3 oz part skim mozzarella, diced (optional)
