This is a fun little twist on classic bruschetta. This bruschetta is perfect for those with a wheat or gluten allergy or for someone who is looking to cut back on their carbs. Either way, you will love these. These are straight from my cookbook, The Everything Wheat-Free Diet Cookbook on sale now in all major bookstores! I just HAD to mention that 🙂
