BRIE-BERRY BRUSCHETTA
I love fresh strawberries, and I try to enjoy as many as possible during the season. Because so many strawberry recipes are quite sweet, I wanted to start the meal with something savory, so I came up with strawberries, cheese and good bread. -Mary Leverette, Columbia, South Carolina

BEST EVER BRUSCHETTA
I went through a major bruschetta phase and tried many many recipes until I found the perfect one. This was originally Guy Fieri's but is slightly adapted to my taste after making it about a billion times. Cookingt time is marinating time.

BASICALLY THE BEST BRUSCHETTA EVER
I've enjoyed bruschetta in the past, but it always seemed to be lacking some zip so I started experimenting. Now, I have a bunch of people asking me to can it and give them some! Hope you enjoy as much as the rest of them!

Steps:
- combine all ingredients above and refrigerate for several hours, check for taste and season accordingly.
- (If you find it to vinegary for your taste simply add some sugar and olive oil).
- Serve on garlic bread with some parm cheese (the fresh, block kind you grate your self) or bake on the bread with a little feta or assagio cheese for a change of pace.
- Enjoy.
Tips:
- Choose ripe and flavorful berries: The quality of your berries will greatly impact the taste of your bruschetta. Look for berries that are plump, brightly colored, and free of blemishes.
- Macerate the berries: Macerating the berries in sugar and lemon juice helps to draw out their natural juices and flavors. This simple step will make your bruschetta even more delicious.
- Use a good quality bread: The bread is the foundation of your bruschetta, so it's important to use a good quality loaf. Look for a bread that is sturdy enough to hold up to the toppings, but still soft and flavorful.
- Don't overload the bruschetta: It's tempting to pile on the toppings, but it's important to resist the urge. Too many toppings will make the bruschetta difficult to eat and will overwhelm the flavors of the berries.
- Serve the bruschetta immediately: Bruschetta is best served immediately after it's made. The bread will start to get soggy if it sits for too long.
Conclusion:
Very berry bruschetta is a delicious and refreshing appetizer or snack that is perfect for summer. With its vibrant colors and flavors, this dish is sure to impress your guests. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy recipe, give very berry bruschetta a try. You won't be disappointed!
