Orange Bell Pepper & Basil Bruschetta

By boscobojo

Ingredients

• 2 jarred roasted orange bell peppers, finely diced
• 2 Tbl. white balsamic vinegar
• 1 baguette (about 24 inches) sliced 3/4 inch thick
• 1 clove garlic, halved
• 2 Tbl. olive oil
• 1/2 cup finely shredded fresh basil

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the broiler. In a small bowl, toss the bell peppers with the vinegar.

On a baking sheet, place the baguette slices in a single layer and broil until the tops are golden, about 3 minutes. Remove, let cool and rub the tops lightly with the garlic, then brush with the olive oil.

Top each toast with some of the diced peppers, then garnish with a pinch of the basil. Arrange the bruschetta on a platter or tray.
