Yum Yum: Hot Bruschetta Dip

This is a new appetizer that I just recently tried.  It got rave reviews at the Christmas party I threw.  I get a co-op of organic produce every few weeks so have to look up recipes to use up items that I don't tyipcally cook with.  We had a huge bunch of tomatoes so this fit the bill..

I love allrecipes.com, which is where this came from.
