This was relatively easy to make (and quick cleanup- just my processor)and was a hit at a dinner party. I was a little unsure of how they would be recieved because it did not look like traditional bruschetta but they are SO much tastier and there were no leftovers. I added some diced mozzarella to the tomato mixture for that complimentary taste. I will definately make these again...One problem though- the recipe made way too much pesto and i did not even use the requested amount of almonds. Thanks for the recipe Maryanne.
This was definitely a big hit at my family gathering. Most said it was the best bruschetta they ever had and I would have to agree. I recommend purchasing a bag of pre-washed spinach leaves situated at the grocery store next to the bags of salad - more simple that way.
Wonderful recipe. I made mine in the blender this time but I believe it will be easier in the food processor (a little "gummy" to begin in the blender). Definitely will make again!!!
5 stars for taste 4 stars for the ingredient list 4.5 overall. First of all I halved the almonds because I ran out. I started using my blender but it couldn't do the job so I had to get out the food processor. It makes too much pesto but it tastes great! I ended up only using about half the pesto so I need to find something else to use it for. Next I used two medium tomatoes and it just wasn't enough. Between the caprese salad and this I was out of tomatoes. I would increase your tomato amount if you like it more tomatoee on top. If you are using good tomatoes omit the olive oil in the mixture. I was using wonderful tomatoes and thought the oil took away from the fresh flavor. Make it easier on yourself and make less pesto and more tomato mixture without the oil. Excellent!
This was a great hit at the bridal shower I took it to. Quick and easy to make.
Mmmm...I loved this bruschetta and so did everyone else at the party. Without a food processor it was a little messy to make but my small electric food chopper got the job done. I will definitely make this again!!!
Tastes Great and a hit at the last party I went to but the spread was messy to make (especially without a food processor).
I received rave reviews from guests when serving this!! My food processor is broken so I finely chopped the pesto ingredients together for just a few minutes and it still turned out great. I also made the pesto the night before and refrigerated it so it only took a few minutes to prepare before serving.
This recipe has been a hit for me! It is so fresh and light. I have taken it to several parties and everyone has raved about it. I give this recipe a thumbs up!!!!
