Ingredients
- 2 medium rip nectarines, pitted and finely diced (about 1 cup)
- 1/2 medium red bell pepper (about 2/3 cup)
- 3 green onions, chopped, white parts only
- 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
- 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lime juice
- 1 tsp minced Serrano chile
- 24 thin slices whole wheat baguette
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and place the rack in the middle of the oven.
- In a medium bowl, gently toss the nectarines, bell pepper, onions, 2 teaspoons of the olive oil, the lime juice and chile. Set aside.
- Spread out the baguette slices on a baking sheet. Lightly brush the bread with the remaining 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon olive oil. Bake the baguette slices until the bread is lightly toasted, 3 to 5 minutes (watch closely so they don't overbrown or burn).
- Remove the bread from the oven and top each slice with a spoonful of the nectarine mixture. Sprinkle the cheese on top. Place the baking sheet back into the oven and heat the bruschetta for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, just until the bruschetta are heated through. Serve immediately.
