Ingredients

2 baguettes 12 oz. each
¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves crushed

Topping

½ red onion finely diced (~1 cup)
1 English cucumber diced (~2 cups)
1 cup grape tomatoes quartered
½ cup feta cheese
½ cup hummus (or more, if only using this)
½ cup tzatziki sauce (or more, if only using this)
Fresh parsley for garnish

Vinaigrette

¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 lemon zested
Kosher salt to taste
Black pepper to taste

Instructions

Prepare and Toast the Bread

Slice the baguette with a serrated knife.
Rub the baguette slices with the crushed garlic cloves.
Brush both sides with olive oil.
Toast on a grill pan until pan marks show. (If you don’t have a grill pan, toast in a toaster oven or a conventional oven until crispy and golden brown. This part of the process will prevent the bread from becoming soggy.)

Make the Topping and Dressing

Dice the red onion and English cucumber with a sharp knife. Quarter the tomatoes.
Measure the onion, cucumber and tomatoes in a large glass bowl.
Measure the feta cheese into the bowl.
Use a large spoon to toss the ingredients until combined.
Measure out the olive oil and red wine vinegar into a liquid measuring cup or a mason jar.
Zest the lemon directly into the liquid measuring cup with the other dressing elements. Season with salt and pepper.
Whisk or mix with a fork until combined, then pour on top of the vegetables.
Toss until combined.

Make the Bruschetta

Use a butter knife to spread hummus OR tzatziki sauce on top of the toasted, garlicky bread.
Spoon the topping on top of the hummus or tzatziki.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Enjoy immediately.
