  • No recipe for Bruchetta Sauce and I would think the Bruchetta Sauce would already have the tomatoes. You must find or grow huge red bell peppers, because that is a lot of filling for them otherwise. Is the measure for the croutons before or after being crushed? I would think before. Guess I won't try this, too many questions. What is the recipe for the Bruchetta Sauce? Is it the same as this;

    1 (14.5 ounce) cans stewed tomatoes
    3 ounces of can tomato paste
    2 T chopped fresh parsley
    1 clove garlic, minced
    1/2 t dried oregano
    1/2 t salt
    1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
    3 T olive oil
    1/3 C finely diced onion
    1/2 C white wine

    In a food processor place Italian tomatoes, tomato paste, chopped parsley, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
    In a large skillet over medium heat saute the finely chopped onion in olive oil for 2 minutes. Add the blended tomato sauce and white wine.
    Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
