Pineapple Mango Bruschetta
Pineapple Mango Bruschetta is a tropical appetizer made with grilled pineapple, fresh mango, lime, and toasted baguette slices.
Ingredients
- 1 can pineapple rings or 1/2 fresh pineapple cut into rings
- 1 mango diced
- 1 bell pepper diced
- 1/4 red onion diced
- 1/4 cup cilantro chopped
- Juice of 1 lime
- Salt to taste
- 1 French baguette cut into 1/2-inch slices
- 1/4 cup olive oil
Instructions
- Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the pineapple rings for 2–3 minutes per side until lightly caramelized. Let cool, then cut into small cubes.
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine grilled pineapple, diced mango, bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and salt.
- Stir well and let the mixture rest for 15 minutes so the flavors blend together.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Arrange baguette slices on a sheet pan and brush both sides lightly with olive oil.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes or until golden and crispy. Check after 7–8 minutes to prevent over-browning.
- Spoon the Pineapple Mango Bruschetta mixture over the toasted bread slices.
- Serve immediately while the bread is crisp and fresh.
Notes
- You can skip grilling the pineapple if you prefer a fresher fruit flavor.
- Serve alongside grilled chicken, seafood, or summer salads.
- This tropical bruschetta also works well as a salsa with tortilla chips.
