Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    p. 82 - I know tomatoes aren’t in season but mr bc so hell-bent on having the goat-cheese grape bruschette and I needed to have something to nibble on. I had some greenhouse tomatoes on the vine that were pretty tasty so I thought I’d throw this dish together. Sourdough was sliced and grilled then rubbed w garlic before drizzling w some evoo. Tomatoes are cut into small pieces then tossed w basil, evoo, chopped garlic, S&P. The tomato mixture is spooned atop your grilled bread and you’re good to go…provided you have a glass of wine in hand at this point…which of course I did…it is Friday afterall! Cin cin!
