Fire Roasted Tomato and Watercress Bruschetta
- 7 slices French Crispy Bread, Thinly Sliced
- 14 ounces, weight Can Fire Roasted Tomatoes, Diced And Drained
- 1/2 cups Green Bell Pepper, Diced
- 1/2 bunches Watercress, Roughly Chopped
- 1/4 cups Extra Virgin Olive Oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, Divided
- 1/4 teaspoons Salt
- 1/4 teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
- 3 Tablespoons Whipped Cream Cheese, Or Laughing Cow Light Swiss Cheese
- Preheat your broiler to high.
- On a baking sheet lined with foil place your bread and spritz it with Pam cooking spray.
- Cook for 4 minutes or until light golden brown.
- Flip the bread over and spritz with more Pam, continue to cook the opposite side for 3 minutes or until golden brown.
- I find the second side always cooks much faster, be sure to keep and eye on the oven so you dont burn the bread.
- I cook on low when Im distracted!
- In a large bowl combine the drained fire roasted tomatoes, diced peppers, chopped watercress, olive oil, one clove of minced garlic, salt and pepper.
- Stir very gently, be sure you dont bruise the watercress too much.
- When the bread is finished take the other clove of garlic, cut in half, and rub it on the bread.
- Cover the bread with a thin layer of whipped cream cheese and spoon the bruschetta over.
- This recipe can be stretched to 10 servings, it all depends on the size of the bread.
- I love using The Laughing Cow light cheese as a substitute for cream cheese; it saves a ton of calories and you cant tell the difference!
