  • Combine ingredients for the bruschetta in a medium size and set it aside while you make the pesto and the crostini. Bruschetta can sit out for up to 1 hour without needed refrigeration.
  • Arrange the bread side by side on a large, rimmed baking sheet. Brush each side with olive oil and sprinkle lightly with salt.
  • Bake for 7-10 minutes, flipping it over halfway through. You want the crostini to be crispy but not so hard you can't easily bite into it.

  • First, dice tomato and add to a medium sized bowl. If too much liquid accumulates, drain the juice or it'll make the bread soggy. Very ripe tomatoes will have a lot of juice.
  • Then, add peeled garlic cloves and salt to taste to the tomatoes. Let stand while you complete the rest of the recipe so the tomatoes can pick up the flavor of the garlic.
  • Meanwhile, add cream cheese, heavy cream and onion powder to a mixing bowl and mix until well combined. Set aside.
  • Next, stack the basil leaves. Roll them from the stem side. Cut from one of the round ends. Basil ribbons will be the result. Set aside.
