ANTIPASTO BRUSCHETTA is an easy appetizer you can customize to your taste and is always a crowd-pleaser!
Are the holidays really over? They sneak up on us fast and are over just as quickly! I had to pleasure of having Christmas dinner at a dear friend’s home. It was delicious! Prime Rib, creme brulee, all the trimmings, but let me tell you what my most favorite thing of the evening was. It was the tastiest, most delicious mouth-watering Antipasto Bruschetta! How simple right? So I had to recreate it and I think I did a really good job because I can’t stop eating it!
This is the most simple Antipasto Bruschetta and you can tailor it to you and your families tastes! If you don’t like onions leave them out, pepperoni too spicy leave it out, hate artichoke hearts leave them out too! You get the idea!
I started with a sliced baguette, you don’t want the bread to be too big remember this is an appetizer, not a sandwich! I simply toasted the baguette slices on both sides and let them cool. You will need these later.
I think the real key to this appetizer is to make sure all your topping ingredients are diced teeny tiny! That way they can sit on top of the baguette slice and not fall off. Ok, who am I kidding it falls off – right into your mouth it’s so good!
I have a secret. This is the first time I have ever made bruschetta and I have to say I am so glad I did!! Now it’s your turn! Go ahead and try your hand at this super easy appetizer I promise you will love it!
