This is a bruschetta with cheese recipe I came up with for a dinner party.
Ingredients
- 1 French baguette
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 roma (plum) tomatoes, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 pinch ground white pepper
- 1 (8 ounce) package sliced mozzarella cheese
- 1 (6 ounce) package sliced provolone cheese
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 2
Slice baguette into 1/2-inch thick diagonal slices. Arrange slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Brush both sides of each slice with olive oil. Place tomato slices and a sprinkling of basil and oregano on bread slices. Sprinkle tomatoes, basil, and oregano with garlic powder and white pepper. Cover tomato slices with mozzarella and provolone. Place more basil, oregano, and tomato slices on top of the cheese.
Step 3
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is bubbly, 7 to 10 minutes.

This was very good and easy to make, use fresh ingredients when possible an it will be that much better. The only thing I disagree with is the amount of olive oil, you will need more than a tbs otherwise it is great! Oh and we cooked it on the grill outside. I just put the slices on foil, set it on the top shelf ,on low heat and closed the grill. Turned out great but watch it close.

I made this bruschetta for a Super Bowl party and was pleasantly surprised by how many compliments I got on the flavor. The only thing I’d change would be to toast the bread in the oven a bit before adding the cheese and tomato…my bread was still a bit soft after the 7-10 minute cooking time. I also used a very thin French baguette, so one slice of Roma tomato over the cheese and spices worked perfectly. Also, my friend suggested including a side plate of vinegar for dipping, and I think I’ll try that in the future.

I have made this about 5 times in the last 2 weeks. This is fantastic! Im absolutely hooked on this stuff. Everyone in the house loves it including the 2 and 9 year old. One of my favorite dishes to serve for gatherings too, I made 40 pieces and there was 2 left over the next morning….which I heated up and ate anyway 🙂

This was a total hit at the Superbowl party! I changed a few things, First: I omitted the oregano since I couldn’t find it fresh at the store. Second: I added two tablespoons of garlic powder. Third: I brushed the bread with olive oil, put a slice of mozzarella on top and baked them until golden brown, then I added the tomato mixture on top unbaked. Like regular bruschetta. It was delicious.

Delish! Love the combo of cheeses. I probably quadrupled the basil, and used dried oregano as that’s all I had. Used fresh minced garlic, and tons of it. I think the amount of olive oil is off. I know I used more than a tablespoon. What can be better than tomato, basil and cheese melted on bread? Thanks Susan!

My family couldn’t get enough of the them. It was my first time making them & it was a chore to chop up enough of the tomatoes, but, it was worth it! I made more the next day too. I did make a few adjustments, I used regular french bread, I used the tips posted from a few other Allrecipes cooks. Then, just fine tuned it to my tastes. I added more olive oil & a bit more cheese, I used garlic powder & minced garlic(as posted by another) I also toasted the bread after brushing it with the oil. Added more black pepper too. It is a really good recipe, thanks for sharing it Susan!

This bruschetta was really good. I used it to round up our soup meal. I used whole grain baguette, sliced grape tomatoes, dried herbs and shredded mix of Mozzarella and Provolone cheese.
I only made one layer of tomatoes. I felt that layering them twice would result in toppings sliding of the bread in the oven. -

I made this to go with a pot of minestrone. Suffice to say this dressed up bread made everyone forget the soup (except to dip the bread INTO the soup for even more of a treat)!! In a word … AMAZING. Cheap to make, easy to prepare, beautiful presentation, and life altering flavors.
