Roasted Red Pepper and Feta Bruschetta image

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.

Time 55m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (12 inch) baguette, cut into 1/2-inch thick slices
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil for brushing, or as needed
1 red bell pepper, halved and seeded
1 (4 ounce) package crumbled feta cheese with basil and sun-dried tomatoes
¼ cup thinly sliced cherry tomatoes
6 kalamata olives, pitted and chopped
2 tablespoons minced green onion
1 tablespoon basil pesto
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 clove garlic, minced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
  • Brush both sides of each baguette slice with extra-virgin olive oil. Arrange baguette slices on a baking sheet and toast under the broiler, about 1 minute per side; watch carefully to avoid burning. Remove toasted slices and set aside on baking sheet.
  • Place red pepper halves, cut sides down, on a baking sheet; broil until skin is charred and blistered, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer pepper halves to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let peppers cool and strip off and discard blackened skin. Chop the roasted peppers.

Top each bread slice with about 1 tablespoon of the mixture and sprinkle each appetizer lightly with Parmesan cheese.
  • Place bruschetta on baking sheet under broiler just until the topping is lightly browned and bubbly, about 1 to 2 minutes.

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



Roasted Red Pepper and Canellinini Bean Bruschetta Recipe - (4.1/5) image

Provided by raklisa2020

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup, about 1 can, butter beans (or great northern beans)
2 red bell peppers, roasted
2-3 cloves garlic, roasted
1-2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
1/2 tablespoon dried thyme
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
salt, to taste
1 baguette (or bread of your choice)

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!
