I'm not usually a fan of brie, but this recipe changed my mind. The brie is perfectly melted and gooey, and it pairs perfectly with the other ingredients.

I've tried many bruschetta recipes, but this one is by far the best. The flavors are so well-balanced and the brie cheese just melts in your mouth.
