So, I've achieved food porn! Check out the northeast corner of the focused bruschetta above and you'll notice one gooey, golden drip of honey running down the bread. Not that I was going for it, but there it is. I made this appetizer for a working dinner last week and modified it slightly from its original Food & Wine version - adding the more flavorful spreadable (and local) chevre, and some fresh rosemary. I know you won't be able to eat just one so make sure to put at least two or three on your plate before others have a chance to gobble them up. Oh and in case you were wondering, final verdict, it's bru-sket-a, not bru-shet-a.

Ingredients
- 1 pint (12 oz) grape or cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 Tbsp EVOO
- 1 Tbsp clover honey
- 2 tsp thyme, chopped
- 1 tsp rosemary, chopped
- 1/2 tsp SnP
- 12 1/2" baguette slices
- 4 oz fresh chevre (ricotta also works, but it has less flavor)
- 1 Tbsp buckwheat, chestnut or thistle honey (any flavorful honey will work)
- basil leaves (if large, cut into a chiffonade)
Preparation
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Mix tomatoes, EVOO, honey, thyme, rosemary and SnP in a small glass dish. Slowly roast for 1 hour, 25 minutes until a lot of the liquid has evaporated and the tomatoes are significantly shriveled; turning occasionally. Let cool.
- Meanwhile, toast the baguettes. When they are cool, spread the slices with the chevre.
- When tomatoes are ready, distribute them evenly over the baguettes. Drizzle with honey and garnish with basil leaves.
