not to be all "italian" but bruschetta (brew-SKET-ta) actually refers to the char of the bread, which then gets smothered in olive oil and topped with any number of salty bits. here are a few options for how to properly serve this classic appetizer
green
Shrimp Ceviche
if you make this for people they will think you're very cool. or you can eat it by yourself while getting tequila drunk in the backyard-- it's a versatile dish
Tofu with Eggplant & Green Beans
think panda express but without the egregious amount of oil-- crispy tofu without any frying, and if you don't like eggplant after this then you're truly a lost cause
Pasta with Peas & Pesto
peas and pesto and parmesan and pasta and-- well that's it actually. super simple, such spring. use a quality store-bought pesto if you must, but fresh homemade pesto makes people happy
