    A classic Italian antipasto, Bruschetta, pronounced “brusketta”, is all about the grilled bread.  In hopes to salvage stale bread, bruschetta was created using baguette or a rustic loaf, brushed with olive oil and grilled to a light golden color and crisp edges.

    A classic Italian antipasto, Bruschetta, pronounced “brusketta”, is all about the grilled bread.  In hopes to salvage stale bread, bruschetta was created using baguette or a rustic loaf, brushed with olive oil and grilled to a light golden color and crisp edges.  Tomato Bruschetta is one of the most common toppings, but there are endless amounts of pairings that can be piled high on grilled bread.   With the bounty of summer fruits, vegetables, cured meats and cheeses, it is easy to create a Trio of Bruschetta for your next brunch, lunch or dinner. 

    Tomato Bruschetta

    A white platter with toasted bread topped with chopped tomatoes

    A farm fresh blend of ruby red ripe tomatoes or the most colorful heirloom tomatoes diced and marinated in olive oil, garlic, balsamic vinegar and freshly torn basil leaves.

    Ingredients

    Ripe Tomatoes-Diced ruby red ripe tomatoes or heirloom tomatoes are great options but any all tomatoes will work as long as they are super fresh.
    Garlic- Minced garlic adds an amazing flavor but make sure you don't put to much and it over powers the flavor of the tomatoes. If you don't have fresh garlic you can use garlic powder as a replacement.
    Olive Oil- Used for the marinated tomatoes as well as brushing the bread before toasting.
    Balsamic Vinegar-Balancing the acid of the tomatoes with vinegar will marinate the tomatoes and adds the perfect amount of tangy flavor.  
    Fresh Basil Leaves- Fresh is the only way to go with bruschetta. Handfuls of fresh basil leaves can be roughly chopped and mixed into the marinated tomatoes and also the perfect garnish on top.
    Dried Oregano- Just a dash of oregano enhances the herby flavor in the tomatoes mixture.

    Sweet Pea and Prosciutto Bruschetta

    A wood board topped with toasted bread, peas and prosciutto slices.

    Fresh and creamy ricotta spread on top of grilled bread slices is accompanied by a fresh citrus sweet pea salad and thinly sliced prosciutto for a salty finish. 

    Ingredients

    Shelled Green Peas- Fresh peas need to be boiled for a few minutes to make the tender and ready to be mixed into a lemon vinaigrette.
    Olive Oil-Used for both the sweet pea salad and brushed on the sliced bread before toasting.
    Lemon Zest-The most amazing addition to the sweet pea salad, the lemon flavor enhances the peas and pairs perfectly with the ricotta cheese.
    Ricotta Cheese- Creamy full fat ricotta cheese is lightly spread on each crostini.  
    Prosciutto- Salty cured meat is placed on top of the ricotta cheese but can easily be removed for a vegetarian option.
    Fresh Mint- A touch of green and an aromatic garnish to add to the top of the bruschetta.  

    Peach Caprese Bruschetta

    A round white place with toasted bread, mozzarella slices and sliced peaches.

    Sweet peaches thinly sliced over fresh mozzarella is the ultimate sweet and salty bite.  These two flavors pair perfectly over grilled bread with a drizzle of balsamic reduction.

    Ingredients

    Peaches- Fresh and medium ripe peaches that can be sliced and hold their shape but are sweet in flavor.
    Mozzarella- Creamy slices of fresh mozzarella cheese, do not used deli slices.
    Balsamic Reduction- A thickened balsamic vinegar that gets sweeter in the cooking process, almost syrup like.
    Fresh Thyme Leaves- A green herb garnish that pairs perfectly with the sweet and salty combination.  

    Three platter of assorted bruschetta, toasted bread with tomatoes, peas, prosciutto and peaches.
