Tomato bruschetta is a light and well balanced appetizer. I would consider it on the healthier side of appetizer choices. This homemade bruschetta caprese (with mozzarella) is a unique twist on the classic Italian appetizer! With sun dried tomatoes and mozzarella that is baked until melted, it is like a caprese salad taken to the next level. I know you can get great tomatoes year round, but local summer tomatoes are just amazing.
