Celebrity Cook-Along, Pillsbury Doughboy!

Hey everyone-Welcome to the Celebrity Cook-Along with the Pillsbury Doughboy! This month I invited you to make The Bake-Off's Tomato Topped Onion Bread Wedges with me or any other Pillsbury recipe.
 So, who picks a fresh tomato recipe when tomatoes aren't in season yet?
Oh yea, that would be me.

Earl was so excited to meet a celebrity as big as the Doughboy,
he was grinning from ear to ear!
Don't let the chef hat fool you, he couldn't boil a hot dog, er... make that water:@)

The star of the show:
Plan A was to use beautiful red Roma tomatoes... they were pale pink at the store. 
"Vine Ripened" weren't much better but that's what I bought.
I also used a green pepper I had on hand.
1. Topping cooked and cooling.
2. Crust ready for the oven.
3. Crust out of the oven.
4. Prepared Bruschetta.

Chow time!
Notes:
  • Because my tomatoes were sad I did add a teaspoon of sugar.
  • Red peppers (and tomatoes) would be a lot prettier.
  • If you taste the topping after mixing it you might think "hummm not amazing", but once added to the bread, it's very good!
  • I like this, do I like it more than fresh Bruschetta? Honestly no, but it's very good for out of season tomatoes.
