Fresh tomatoes are traditional when tomatoes are ripe and in season, but you CAN make a delicious, easy bruschetta recipe with canned tomatoes. It\u2019s the perfect topping for pan-seared chicken cutlets, with fresh basil, garlic, and balsamic vinegar (250 calories \/ 3 WW points)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tomato bruschetta is simple enough to make, and yet it\u2019s completely irresistible. Diced tomatoes are tossed with fresh basil, a little minced garlic, a few glugs of good-quality, fruity olive oil, a pinch of salt, and pepper. And although fresh tomatoes are traditional, they’re not always in season. Believe it or not, you can make a fabulous, EASY bruschetta recipe with canned tomatoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The key, as with all simple recipes, is using the highest quality, best-tasting ingredients you can, especially<\/em> when it comes to canned tomatoes. I always, always, always recommend Tuttorosso Tomatoes. I also think adding a splash of sweet, syrupy balsamic vinegar to your bruschetta topping gives the mix more dimension.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can spoon it on top of toasted bread of course, but I like to use my easy bruschetta recipe as a topping for quick, pan-seared chicken cutlets seasoned very simply with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. It would add fabulous flavor to fish, pork, beef, or even combined with cannellini beans for an easy vegetarian side. Enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n
