Ingredients
  

Cheesy Bruschetta Filling

  • 1 container Alouette Garlic and Herb Soft Cheese Spread
  • 30 mini phyllo shells I use Athens brand. Find these in the frozen section near desserts
  • 5 count roma tomatoes sliced in half and flesh scooped out
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ cup fresh basil extra for garnish
  • 2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • to taste sea salt
  • to taste black pepper

Instructions
 

Preparation Steps

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place mini fillo shells in and bake for about 5 minutes.
  • Chop tomatoes up, place in a bowl and add basil, garlic, balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper to taste- stir together and set aside.
  • Grab a plastic baggie and a cup or a bowl. Fit the baggie into the cup so that you can scoop the garlic and herb cheese into it. Fold up like you would a pastry bag and cut the tip off. This makes it easy and quick to get the cheese into shells.
  • Evenly pipe a small amount of cheese into each shell.
  • Top cheese with a small scoop of bruschetta. Garnish with fresh basil.
  • Optional, but delicious if you have the time: Place Cheesy Bruschetta Bites back into a 350 degree oven for 5 minutes just before serving.
