Bruschetta is an Italian appetizer or antipasti that starts with a base of toasted or grilled

bread. The bread is then served warm either with a topping spooned over or with a
topping on the side so each person can build their own bruschetta. Bruschetta is meant
to be served as a hand-held finger food, large enough for one or two bites.
You can top bruschetta with more than tomatoes, too. Variations may include toppings
of vegetables, beans, cured meat, fish, chicken or cheese…. and anything you like with
a wide variety of options!
