Bruschetta Bites
, ,

These bites are a great starter in a casual or formal setting.  Not only are they simple to make, but you can use hundreds of toppings!  And they can be vegetarian too!


Ingredients:
• 1 baguette of French bread or similar
• Some olive oil
• Salt and black pepper to season
• Toppings of your choice – see what’s in your fridge and cupboards!
 o Suggested Toppings:
   Tomato puree
   Chicken Slices
   Chopped Tomatoes
   Bacon
   Mozzarella (or any cheese)
   Onions
   Mushrooms
   Scallions
   Salmon
   Roast Vegetables
   Crunchy Salad


Method:
• Slice the baguette into individual bite sizes and coat one side with olive oil
• Cook the meat
• Cook the vegetables
• Start to layer your ingredients on the oiled side of the bread bites, topping them with cheese.
• Once ready to serve, simply place them under the grill for 5 minutes and serve.


Expert Tip: Serve with sour cream or sweet chilli sauce for dipping.  Layer your bites so that the bread doesn’t go soggy – place a little cheese or your meat on first and finish with the vegetables.
