Bruschetta is a delicious and versatile snack that can be customized to your liking
It is a popular Italian dish typically made with toasted bread, tomatoes, garlic, and olive oil. In this article, I would like to introduce you to some delicious bruschetta recipes prepared with the superfood microgreens. Microgreens are young vegetables and herbs that are harvested when they are just 1-3 weeks old. These tiny plants are packed with nutrients and flavors, making them perfect for giving your bruschetta that extra kick.
