Bruschetta with Tomatoes & Mozzarella
|
|
This is one of the easiest and tastiest summer recipes – it makes a perfect snack or light lunch when ripe, well-flavoured tomatoes are at their best. If you can, choose buffalo mozzarella, as it has much more flavour than mozzarella made from cow’s milk. Good quality fresh Italian-style ricotta is a good substitute for mozzarella.
