Ingredients
- 1 container of pre made bruschetta we like the one from Trader Joes
- 1 baguette
- 1 log of pre cut mozzarella
- balsamic glaze
Instructions
- Slice baguette into 1 inch rounds
- Heat a large frying pan and drizzle with oil. Once hot add baguette slices and cook 2 minutes per side until golden. Option to bake your crostini in the oven: rub with olive oil and spread on a baking sheet. Bake at 400 for 8-10 minutes.
- Arrange crostini on a serving platter and top each one with bruschetta mixture
- Using a small heart shaped cookie cutter OR a pairing knife, cut out heart shapes from the mozzarella slices
- Top each bruschetta with cheese and drizzle with balsamic glaze
- Option to garnish with fresh basil
Notes
- I like to grab all my ingredients at Trader Joes but you can easily find them in other grocery stores. You can of course make your own bruschetta mix but using a pre made one saves you lots of time!
- Make this appetizer extra cute by catering to different holidays. Cut your mozzarella into heart shapes for Valentine's Day or ghosts for Halloween or Christmas trees for Christmas!
- Option to bake your crostini in the oven and you can do this step ahead of time. Then assemble quickly before servings.
