AWESOME OLIVE BRUSCHETTA
I got this recipe from a friend who was a caterer. It was her most requested dish. It is so delicious and wins raves everytime I serve it. One thing, this is much better if made the night before so the flavors really have time to marry.

CHEESE & OLIVE BRUSCHETTA
I've never had anyone turn these down. They are so easy to make and the results are always good. Try these after the game or after a winter outdoors event. I have been told that the recipe was originally from a Company's Coming cook book- I am not sure where I found it. I love Company's Coming cookbooks so that is likely where I saw it.

MUSHROOM OLIVE BRUSCHETTA
After experimenting with different ingredients and flavor combinations, I came up with this variation on traditional tomato-based bruschetta. I've also used this recipe as a stuffing for chicken breast, and sometimes will add a little feta cheese. You can make it ahead of time and keep it in the refrigerator, but be sure to bring it to room temperature before serving-that's how it tastes best! -Colleen Blasetti, Palm Coast, Florida

Tips:
