Tomato Onion Bruschetta with Mayo is an easy recipe. This can be served for parties as a starter or appetizer and can even be had for breakfast or even for snacks with a bowl of hot soup.
A bruschetta is an Italian dish normally served as an appetizer. It consists of toasted bread which is topped with tomatoes and herbs. In this recipe I have topped the toasted bread with Delmonte mint mayo over which a mixture of finely chopped onion, finely chopped tomato and basil is placed. The addition of mint mayo to this recipe gives it a fresh minty flavour making the regular bruschetta even more yummy.
This recipe can become the star of any party and is very easy to prepare and tastes best soon after serving when the bread is crispy. You don’t need any dips with this recipe as it is already topped with delicious mint mayo. Mint mayo makes this recipe taste refreshingly delicious. You can even make this quick recipe as evening snacks for children.
If you don’t have a readymade mint mayo, you can add finely chopped mint leaves to mayo to make it mint flavored. Other recipes using mayo:
- Butter chicken with mayo
- Vegetarian tortilla pizza with mayo
- Shrimp stir fry with mayo
- Egg dosa with cheesy mayo
- Spicy mushroom and broccoli stir fry with mayo
