TOMATO MIXTURE
- 10 oz Cherry tomatoes evenly sliced
- ¼ cup Red onion chopped
- 4-5 - Fresh Basil leaves chopped
- 1 tablespoon Olive Oil
- - - Salt to taste
ASSEMBLE BRUSCHETTA
- 4 oz Ball of Mozzarella Cheese (appx. 1/4 cup diced cheese)
- - - Fresh Basil leaves
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar to drizzle on top
Preheat the oven to the broil setting. Brush the baguette slices with olive oil. Transfer the bread slices onto a baking sheet. Spray with olive oil and broil the pieces in the hot oven for 1-2 minutes, until it's slightly browned. Flip it over and toast it on the other side for 1-2 minutes. When the bread is crispy, remove it from the oven. Cut a clove of garlic in half. Rub garlic on all the toasted bread slices. Garlic infuses flavor into this bread, which will dissolve as you keep rubbing it onto the bread. Once done, set it aside.
PREPARE TOMATO MIXTURE
In a separate bowl, combine chopped tomatoes, onions, olive oil, fresh basil leaves, and salt. Toss to combine.
ASSEMBLE AVOCADO BRUSCHETTA
Take a toasted bread slice. Spread a layer of avocado spread onto each slice. Generously spoon tomato mixture on top of the avocado layer. Finally, top with cubed Mozzarella Cheese and fresh basil leaves. Serve immediately.Tip — To reach the authentic taste of Avocado Tomato Bruschetta, drizzle some balsamic glaze over it. It adds a rich layer of flavor and deliciousness to the recipe.

Can I prepare this recipe with gluten-free bread?
Absolutely, you can! Try this tomato and Avocado mix on any gluten-free bread; it will taste just incredible.

The ingredients stay fresh for 2- 3 days when stored separately. However, the assembled Bruschetta stays fresh for up to a few hours. It is best to prepare the quantity which is good to be consumed right away. Reheating is not recommended as it will not give the best results.
