Scale

Bruschetta Dip Ingredients

  • 1 (6.5 oz) Alouette Cheese with herbs (or other soft cheese spread like Boursin)
  • ½ cup tomatoes, chopped
  • ¼ cup fresh basil, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinaigrette glaze or reduction
  • Pita chips, crackers, or thinly sliced baguette for serving

Instructions

  1. Spread the cheese: Evenly spread the soft herb cheese over the center of a large plate or small platter to create a creamy base layer for the dip.
  2. Add the tomatoes: Sprinkle the chopped tomatoes evenly over the top of the cheese layer, ensuring a fresh and juicy topping.
  3. Top with basil: Scatter the chopped fresh basil leaves on top for an aromatic and flavorful finish.
  4. Drizzle the glaze: Lightly drizzle the balsamic vinaigrette glaze or reduction over the entire plate to add tangy sweetness and enhance the flavors.
  5. Serve: Present the bruschetta dip with pita chips, crackers, or thinly sliced baguette so guests can scoop and enjoy.

Notes

  • For best flavor, use ripe, juicy tomatoes and fresh basil leaves.
  • Substitute balsamic glaze with a balsamic reduction or high-quality balsamic vinegar if glaze is unavailable.
  • Try serving with vegetable sticks or toasted crostini as an alternative to chips or crackers.
  • Prepare the dip just before serving to keep the ingredients fresh and the bread crispy.
