I love to make this for gatherings. I modify by brushing olive oil on the bread and then lightly toasting. You don't have to bake this afterward, but I normally do. French bread is a nice substitute too. I typically use a Vidalia onion, and dried spices (except for basil, which I usually have on hand fresh).

2 large tomatoes, coarsely chopped
1/2 sweet onion, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
1 teaspoon chopped fresh basil
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
1/2 (1 pound) loaf Italian bread, cut into 1 inch slices
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

In a medium bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, olive oil, oregano, basil and parsley. Place bread on a baking sheet, and top with tomato mixture. Sprinkle with Parmesan.

Bake in preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until bottom of bread is browned. Allow to cool 5 minutes before serving.
