A Trio Of Bruschetta Recipes

Steps:

• Make the crostini: Turn the oven to broil on high.
• Trim off the ends of the multi-grain bread, then slice crosswise into 12 even pieces. Arrange the bread slices on a baking sheet in a single layer and brush on both sides with the olive oil.
• Broil on each side for 2-5 minutes, until golden brown, watching closely to make sure the bread doesn't burn. Remove from the oven and let cool.
• Make the heirloom tomato topping: Finely dice the red and yellow tomatoes and place in a medium bowl. Add the olive oil, pepper, and sliced basil. Mix well. Let sit for 5-10 minutes.
• Spoon the tomato mixture onto 4 of the crostini, then garnish with the Parmesan cheese, flaky sea salt, more pepper, and the whole basil leaves.
• Make the asparagus and lox topping: Heat the olive oil in a large pan over high heat. Add the asparagus, season with salt, toss a few times, then cook without disturbing until the asparagus turns very dark brown on the bottom. Remove from the pan and let cool.
• In a small bowl, combine the ricotta, lemon zest (set aside ½ teaspoon of zest for garnish), lemon juice, and salt. Whisk well.
• Spread the lemon ricotta mixture onto 4 of the crostini, then top with smoked salmon and asparagus. Garnish each with reserved lemon zest and black pepper.
• Make the avocado and radish topping: Thinly slice each avocado half crosswise and fan out with the knife. Slice the radish into thin matchsticks.
• Lay the avocado on the remaining 4 crostini, then drizzle with the olive oil and season with the everything bagel seasoning and flaky salt. Top with the radish and sprouts.
• Serve the bruschetta with Tanqueray® RTD Cans.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Preheat broiler on low. On a non-stick cookie sheet, arrange 25 slices of cocktail sourdough bread squares and brush one side lightly with extra virgin olive oil. Toast under broiler for approximately 3 minutes each side or until toasted lightly. Transfer toasts to serving plate.
• In a medium bowl, gently toss together the tomatoes, onions, garlic, capers and olives. In a separate bowl whisk together 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, the 3 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar and the oregano.
• May refridgerate two mixtures until ready to serve. When ready to serve, pour oil/vinegar mixture over tomato mixture and toss together gently. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground pepper.
• Serve cold in a bowl alongside the cocktail toasts and a small bowl of freshly grated parmesan cheese for topping.
