Bruschetta with Basil Pesto
- 1 jar (8-10 Oz. Jar) Basil Pesto (I Use Classico Brand)
- Baguette Bread (presliced If Your Store Has It)
- 8 ounces, weight Mozzarella Cheese (not Shredded)
- 1 container (16 Oz. Container) Tomato Bruschetta (I Use The Premade Stuff On The Olive Bar At My Grocery Store)
- 4 teaspoons Olive Oil
- 4 ounces, weight Parmesan Or Romano Cheese
- Line 2 baking sheets with aluminum foil (this makes for easy clean up!).
- If you cant find a pre-sliced baguette, slice the one you do get into 1/4-inch slices.
- Put the bread slices on baking sheets.
- Drizzle each slice with olive oil.
- Toast the bread under the broiler until lightly browned.
- I toast both sides.
- Im not a fan of soggy bread, and this helps with that!
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- After the bread is toasted, put 1/2 teaspoon (or so) of basil pesto on each bread slice.
- On top of the pesto, put 1 teaspoon (or so) of tomato bruschetta.
- Sprinkle parmesan or romano over the bruschetta.
- On top of bruschetta, put a slice of mozzarella (1 square inch piece).
- Bake until mozzarella begins to melt and bruschetta is warmed through.
- These are a requirement for every family gathering ... and we have a lot of gatherings!
