The end of summer is producing the juiciest, sweetest cherry tomatoes I’ve ever grown in my garden. I have been putting them into so many recipes, and this simple Cherry Tomato Bruschetta really lets their sweetness shine.

Whether you get them from your own garden or the neighborhood farmers market, pick up a pint or two and make this perfect end-of-summer appetizer. It’s a great way to welcome guests to an Italian dinner and hold onto the last bits of the season.
