Shareholder Tanya's Bruschetta

Ingredients:

2 pounds of paste tomatoes (any tomato will actually work here but I'm getting lots of paste)
half a large onion or one small onion 
Four cloves of garlic
1/8 cup olive oil
Three sprigs of thyme
Three basil leaves
Salt

For the toast:

Day old French bread
Olive oil
granulated garlic

Preparation:

Preheat the oven to 375°. Pour olive oil in a roasting pan, add diced tomatoes, chopped onion and minced garlic, the herbs still on their stems, and salt to taste. Mix ingredients together and spread evenly in the roasting pan, herbs should not be on top or they will burn. Place in oven for at least an hour. Stir after 45 minutes and turn oven to 400°. Continue checking every 5-10 minutes until liquid is mostly gone and a little Browning has occurred. Serve the bruchetta on the warm croutons.
