Bruschetta Caprese with Fresh Mozzarella and Tomato

Bruschetta Caprese is a fun, summer appetizer that brings the classic ingredients of a classic insalata caprese recipe together with grilled bruschetta bread while celebrating the flavors and harvest of the season.

Sweet, juicy tomatoes are combined with fresh mozzarella and basil then topped on thick slices of charred rustic bread that’s been rubbed with garlic and brushed with savory extra virgin olive oil.

Ingredients:

For The Topping: Tomatoes Mozzarella Pearls Extra Virgin Olive Oil Salt

Gather and prep all ingredients. Then, make the topping by combining the tomatoes, mozzarella, olive oil, salt, black and crushed red pepper in a bowl.

Let this mixture sit for 30-60 minutes at room temperature.

Meanwhile, prepare the bruschetta bread. Grill both sides of the bread slices on a very hot grill or grill pan until slightly charred.

As the bread slices come off the grill, rub the surface of one side of the hot grilled bread with the cut side of a garlic clove.

Next, brush it lightly with extra virgin olive oil.
