Bruschetta topping

Cheese base

  • ¼ cup shredded parmesan cheese use one labeled as vegetarian if needed

  • 2 cloves garlic minced

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the bruschetta ingredients: chopped tomatoes, basil, garlic, balsamic, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • In another bowl, combine the crème fraîche, yogurt, parmesan, basil, and garlic. Using a hand mixer, beat the mixture until fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • In a serving bowl or plate with rims, spread out the cheese mixture. Spoon the bruschetta topping over it.

Notes

  • Cheese substitutions include mascarpone, ricotta, cottage, or softened cream cheese. You can also use plain Greek yogurt or sour cream.
  • This dish is best enjoyed right away once assembled. To make in advance, prepare the bruschetta topping and cheese base but store in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Assemble the dip right before serving
  • I recommend using a sturdy bread like a baguette or crackers for serving. You need something that will hold up with the tomatoes and creamy cheese. Nutrition facts do not include bread or crackers.
