Tomato and Mozzarella Bruschetta ingredients

I love all the fresh and savory ingredients that make the topping for this bruschetta for the warmer months when it just feels great to eat outside with family and friends. This recipe makes 8 servings so it’s perfect for a small get together or you can double the ingredients if you’re entertaining more! I personally will make this at home for myself and then i’ll store what’s left so I can continue to enjoy it for the couple of days.

How to store the Tomato and Mozzarella Bruschetta

This is best served immediately. However, you can make these ahead of time! Store the topping separately in an airtight container in the fridge and the toasted bread in an airtight container at room temperature. Spoon the tomato mixture over the toast just before serving. 

Can you eat Tomato and Mozzarella Bruschetta warm or cold?

Either! We love them fresh out of the oven and it’s just as good once the bread has cooled down and if the toppings have been chilled. Just make sure to serve the bruschetta immediately after putting the tomatoes on the toast (or it will get soggy).

What is Bruschetta?

Bruschetta is essentially toasted bread with toppings and is a popular Italian appetizer. Perfect for as a snack or to feed a crowd as an appetizer.
