Ingredients

• 12 oz fresh strawberries

• ½ cup finely chopped fresh basil

• 2 tbs Maple Balsamic Vinegar

• 1 tsp olive oil

• ¼ tsp ground black pepper, or to taste

• Pinch salt, or to taste

• 1 tsp Pure Maple Syrup (optional)

• 1 baguette, sliced and toasted

• Spreadable cream cheese (optional)

Instructions

1. Clean, hull, and finely dice the strawberries so the pieces are ½ inch or smaller, preferably close to ¼ inch.

2. Add the diced strawberries to a large bowl and stir in the basil, Maple Balsamic Vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper.

3. Taste-test the bruschetta and add syrup if you’d like it to be a bit sweeter. You can add more salt and pepper at this point as well if you’d like.

4. Serve the bruschetta over toasted baguette slices, optionally slathering each slice with a bit of spreadable cream cheese first.
