This recipe makes about 20-24 bruschetta.

Ingredients you need for this recipe:

  • 1 baguette
  • 10 fresh basil leaves, torn into small pieces
  • 3-4 large tomatoes (chopped, seeds removed)
  • 2 tbsp onion, finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1/4 cup mozzarella, sliced thin
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

How to make homemade Tomato Basil Mozzarella Bruschetta:

Slice baguette into thin slices about 1/4″ thick.

Drizzle your baguette slices with olive oil, then top each slice with a thin small slice of mozzarella cheese.

Lightly toast your mozzarella topped baguettes in a toaster oven or in the oven at 350 degrees for about 5-7 minutes.

While your baguette slices are toasting; combine tomatoes, onions, garlic, basil, balsamic, black pepper and salt in a small bowl. Taste and add salt if needed, a pinch at a time.

When your baguette slices are done toasting, gently remove and let them cool slightly. Top each slice with about 1 tbsp of the tomato mixture. You are ready to eat!

Recipe notes: I used Roma tomatoes and yellow onion. You can use whatever tomatoes you would like. Red onion would also go excellent in this recipe as a substitute to yellow.
