2Garlic Cloves minced
1/2cupFresh Basilroughly chopped (additional for garnish)
2tbspOlive Oil
1/2tspSea Salt
1/2tspBlack Pepper
Balsamic Glaze (optional)for drizzling
Instructions
Make the Whipped Cheese Base: In a food processor or mixing bowl, combine ricotta and Boursin cheese. Blend until smooth and creamy, about 1–2 minutes. Spread evenly into the bottom of a shallow serving dish.
Prepare the Bruschetta Topping: In a medium bowl, mix the seeded and diced tomatoes, onion, garlic, basil, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Let sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to develop flavor.
Assemble the Dip: Spoon the bruschetta mixture evenly over the whipped cheese base. Drizzle balsamic glaze over the top and garnish with fresh basil.
Serve: Pair with toasted baguette slices, pita chips, or crackers. Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.
Notes
For best flavor, use fresh, ripe tomatoes. In winter, cherry or grape tomatoes hold up better.
Whip the cheese mixture ahead of time and assemble just before serving for a quick appetizer.
Try adding a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes for a little heat.
