Three variations of festive bruschetta

Caesar bruschetta:

  • Baguette
  • Chicken fillet – 1 piece
  • Chicken seasoning
  • Cream cheese – 2 tbsp
  • Boiled egg – 1
  • Pickled cucumbers – 2
  • Lemon juice – 1 tsp
  • Garlic – 1 clove
  • Arugula – 10 g
  • Cherry tomatoes – 3
  • Hard cheese

Avocado and salmon bruschetta:

  • Avocado – 1
  • Cream cheese – 2 tbsp
  • Lemon juice – 2 tbsp
  • Lightly salted salmon – 100 g
  • Green olives – 7
  • Cherry tomatoes – 7

Pineapple and cheese bruschetta:

  • Cream cheese – 2 tbsp
  • Dry-cured sausage – 1 pack
  • Pineapple – 2 rings
  • Almonds – 20 g
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Add oil and seasoning to the chicken fillet and let it marinate. Then pan-fry it on both sides until golden brown.

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Slice the baguette into 1-cm pieces and place them on a baking sheet. Bake for 3-5 minutes to crisp the bread.

Add butter to the chicken and cook for an additional few minutes.

For the spread, combine cream cheese, boiled egg, pickled cucumbers, spices, and lemon juice. Blend the mixture and add another clove of garlic.

Spread the mixture on the toasted bread slices, add arugula, place sliced chicken on top, then add half a cherry tomato and grate some cheese.
