I think it’s safe to say that every time my brother comes to our parents’ house, he makes this bruschetta. Well, maybe 90% of the time. That’s why I call it Chris’ Simple Bruschetta – his recipe is really simple, you could make it every day!

And there’s a reason for that: it’s always a big hit! I remember when he made these at a party and they were eaten so fast, I didn’t even get to try one at first! He had to make another batch and I made sure to sneak one away then.

It’s summertime and you know what that means  –  yard work!  I know, you thought I’d say “beach” or “pool” or “vacation!” But unfortunately for my fiancé and I, that’s not the case at the moment. It has been raining so much in Indiana that we have to use up the good-weather-days to catch up on yard work. Bummer.

Since my fiancé and his best friend are working hard on this 80 degree, sunny, pool-perfect day, I thought the least I can do is make a protein-packed lunch to make sure they don’t quit!

Are you a sweet or savory breakfast kind of person? I eat a sweet breakfast almost every day – why not start each day with a healthy sweet breakfast, like yogurt or oatmeal, and pretend I’m eating dessert first thing in the morning? 🙂 But sometimes I just need something savory – like this smoked salmon and scrambled egg toast!
