Ingredients
- 1 loaf whole-grain baguette
- 2 cups cherry tomatoes
- 0.5 cup fresh basil leaves
- 0.5 cup low-fat feta cheese
- 4 slices prosciutto
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 2 garlic cloves
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Slice the whole-grain baguette diagonally into 16 half-inch thick slices.
Place the slices on a baking sheet and brush lightly with 1 tablespoon of olive oil on each side.
Bake in the preheated oven for 5 minutes or until the bread is toasted and lightly golden.
While the bread is toasting, halve the cherry tomatoes and place them in a medium bowl.
Chop the basil leaves and add to the tomatoes.
Finely chop or crush the garlic cloves and add them to the tomato and basil mixture.
Crumble the low-fat feta cheese into the bowl with tomatoes.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar, then season with black pepper and salt to taste. Mix everything gently.
Once the bread is toasted, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool slightly.
Tear the prosciutto slices into bite-sized pieces.
Top each toasted baguette slice with a spoonful of the tomato mixture and a piece of prosciutto.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-fat bruschetta with prosciutto!
