ROASTED RED PEPPER AND TOMATO BRUSCHETTA
I have tried many different bruschetta recipes and none of them quite tickled my tastebuds until I tried the recipe from Penny's Gourmet to Go. Be sure to refrigerate this at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to mix. You can use 3 (15 oz cans) chopped tomatoes in place of fresh tomatoes.

ROASTED RED PEPPER AND FETA BRUSCHETTA
I'm not a big fan of bruschetta, but I love this recipe, and so does everyone I've made it for! This is just as good as anything from a restaurant. This recipe takes longer the first few times you do it, before you really get the hang of it. It is a bit of work, but trust me, it's worth it! Most likely, you won't have leftovers.

ROASTED RED PEPPER AND CANELLININI BEAN BRUSCHETTA RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350° F. Slice baguette into 1/4 inch slices and brush slightly with olive oil. Place on a baking sheet and quickly toast in the oven for about 10 minutes. Brush red peppers with olive oil and roast in a heated oven until outer skin chars and can be easily removed. Remove the charred outer skin once peppers have cooled enough to handle. Dice into 1/4 inch pieces. While peppers are roasting, you can also be roasting the garlic! In a piece of aluminum foil, place the garlic cloves in olive oil and fold up to create a pouch. Heat in oven for 10-15 minutes or until garlic has become soft and tender. In a mixing bowl, combine beans, red peppers, garlic, balsamic vinegar, rosemary, and thyme. Mix well. Taste and season with salt. Now, you can either top the baguette with the mixture as is OR I like to blend half of the mixture in a blender until nice and creamy. I then add the creamed beans and peppers back with the other beans, so I have some whole beans remaining in the resulting mixture. Once the baguette have been topped with the bruschetta, toast in an 350° F oven for about 10 minutes. Keep an eye on the bread, you want them to be toasty, but not burnt! Sprinkle with fresh parsley, serve warm and enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the taste of your bruschetta, so be sure to choose ripe, juicy ones. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and have no blemishes.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your bruschetta will taste. Use fresh basil, garlic, and olive oil for the best flavor.
- Toast the bread before assembling: Toasting the bread will help it to hold up better to the toppings and prevent it from becoming soggy. You can toast the bread in the oven, on a grill, or in a toaster.
- Be generous with the toppings: Don't be afraid to pile on the toppings! The more toppings you use, the more flavorful your bruschetta will be.
- Serve immediately: Bruschetta is best served immediately after it is assembled. This will help to prevent the bread from becoming soggy.
Conclusion:
Bruschetta is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With its fresh, flavorful ingredients and versatile toppings, bruschetta is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack or appetizer, give bruschetta a try.
