We recommend preparing a simple and incredibly delicious Italian dish in no time. You'll see that there's no better option than bruschetta with mozzarella and tomatoes for a perfect snack. To make this dish exceptionally tasty, don't skimp on the basil during preparation.
Thoroughly wash the tomatoes and dice them into small cubes. Rinse the basil leaves and finely chop them. Peel the garlic and press 2 cloves using a garlic press. In a deep bowl, combine the tomatoes, garlic, and basil. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black ground pepper. Gently mix all the ingredients together.
Slice the baguette into rounds and lightly toast them in a skillet until they are golden brown. Rub the toasted baguette slices with whole garlic cloves that have been cut in half, and then drizzle them with olive oil.
Dice the mozzarella into small cubes. Place the cheese on top of the baguette slices. Then, spoon the tomato mixture on top. It's ready to serve!
To make your bruschetta even more delicious, you can bake it in the oven. Place the mozzarella-topped baguette slices on a baking sheet. Then, place them in the oven for about 2 minutes to melt the cheese slightly without drying out the bread. By the way, if you want to make the tomato mixture smoother, you can remove the skin from the tomatoes before dicing them.
