    What is Bruschetta?

    Bruschetta is basically grilled bread with toppings. Traditional bruschetta comes from Italy. There are many, many variations of bruschetta but it often is topped with tomatoes. Today's version balances the sweet heat of salsa and offsets it with a savory cheese.

    Ingredients

    This recipe just needs a few simple ingredients!

    • Baguette--gluten free or traditional baguette
    • Salsa--we suggest more of a fruity salsa for this recipe but you absolutely could use a traditional salsa too. We used a beautiful watermelon jicama summer salsa from Sam's Salsa, but a mango or strawberry salsa would also taste amazing! Sam's Salsa can be found at Shoprite, Acme and Safeway.
    • Cheese--A savory brie or sweet mascarpone would be the perfect addition. If you are going dairy free, stick with a dairy free cream cheese. In a pinch, I think traditional cream cheese would also work.

    Serving Suggestions

    What Drinks Would You Serve With This Bruschetta?

    This recipe just screams a nice ice cold glass of fresh squeezed lemonade. Maybe a nice salt rimmed margarita or a glass of horchata?

    What Kinds of Foods Pair Well with Bruschetta?

    The bruschetta in this recipe is the star of the show. It can be served as a side dish and paired with a chicken breast or steak that doesn't contain a lot of spices. Or it can be served stand alone with a drink as a summer party appetizer.

    Party Suggestions

    At a party, you could leave out the toasted bruschetta and place out various cheeses for guests to spread themselves and several fruity salsas to choose from as a topping. It would be a fun buffet party recipe.

    How to Store Bruschetta

    This recipe is best served fresh. We suggest making it up and serving it as soon as possible.
