DIRECTIONS:

Before we get started with making the bruschetta with mushrooms, preheat the oven to 375 so we can toast the bread.

Heat up a skillet on medium heat and once hot, add in one portion of the butter.

Once completed melted, add in mushrooms and turn up to high heat. You will notice after a few minutes a lot of water will start to release out of the mushroom. Continue to cook on high heat, making sure all mushrooms are coated in butter and allow the water to evaporate.

Once evaporated turn heat down to medium, salt, and pepper as desired, and add in your herbs and spices. Mix until well incorporated.

Next, add in your second portion of butter and coat mushrooms thoroughly. Allow to cook for another 10 or so minutes, stirring every few minutes to avoid burning.

While that cooks, place slices of bread on a baking tray and coat each piece with some olive oil before placing it in the oven for 5 minutes or until toasted. When ready remove, allow to cool for a few minutes before coating with goat cheese.

When mushrooms are ready, add them on top of the goat cheese covered crostini’s and garnish with truffle oil before serving.

RECIPE REVIEW: STRAWBERRY GOAT CHEESE BRUSCHETTA RECIPE

I found this recipe online while trying to find inspiration and had to try it out. I am a huge fan of goat cheese and the mix of sweet and salty flavors, so right off the bat it caught my attention. I did make an adjustment to the original recipe which called for thyme instead of mint, and I am so happy I did. The freshness of the mint perfectly complimented the strawberries and it tasted just heavenly. If you have a sweet tooth or like sweet fruits with cheese, you got to try this strawberry bruschetta recipe! Feel free to also get creative and change up the cheese! I am sure it would also taste amazing with feta cheese and a little balsamic glaze or cream cheese if that’s all you have!

INGREDIENTS:

Serving: 3-4 People

1/2 CUP of balsamic vinegar
Bread cut into slices - I used baguette but the original recipe calls for Italian
1 TBSP of olive oil
1 LB of Fresh Strawberries (cut into small morsels)
2 TSP of Fresh Mint (chopped) - original recipe calls for thyme
1 CUP of Goat Cheese - Keep at room temperature for easy spreading
Salt and Pepper to Taste

HOW TO MAKE STRAWBERRY BRUSCHETTA:

The first thing you want to do is reduce the balsamic vinegar into a glaze so in order to do this you need to heat it in a small pot or pan over medium to low heat. Let it simmer there for 8 to 10 minutes, it should reduce by about half and thicken nicely to a glaze. Once it is done, remove from heat and allow it to cool back to room temperature.

Next, you have to toast the bread. You can either do this in bulk using a foil-lined baking sheet, drizzling them with olive oil, and placing them in the oven at 400 for 5-10 minutes. The timing here can vary depending on how thick you cut the slices and how golden/crunchy you want them so keep an eye on them so they don’t burn.

While the bread is in the oven, combine cut-up strawberries with fresh mint in a bowl and add in the room temperature vinegar glaze. Salt and pepper the mixture to your taste.

Once the bread is ready you can go ahead and spread goat cheese across each piece before spooning the strawberry bruschetta mixture over each piece. Garnish with more mint and serve!

Enjoy!
