With the holidays fast approaching, it’s time to gather that list of quick and easy appetizers that you can whip up whenever you need one! Here is a great new app to add to the list.
There aren’t many ingredients and it comes together in a matter of minutes.
First:
Chop 5-6 tomatoes into small pieces and put in a bowl.
Add 2-3 tablespoons of pesto (store bought or homemade).
Next:
Mix to combine.
Then:
Add 1/2 c. of parmesan cheese – either fresh or from a can or a combination of both. Stir to combine.
Last:
Slice a french or multigrain baguette into thin slices.
Place the pieces of bread onto a cookie sheet and bake at 400 for about 5 minutes to allow the bread to toast.
Remove the bread from the oven and place a large scoop of bruschetta on each toast and set on the cookie sheet.
Bake the bruschetta at 400 for 8-10 minutes or until tomatoes are warmed, cheese starts to melt and flavors meld together.
Serve!
