Mushroom Olive Bruschetta image

After experimenting with different ingredients and flavor combinations, I came up with this variation on traditional tomato-based bruschetta. I've also used this recipe as a stuffing for chicken breast, and sometimes will add a little feta cheese. You can make it ahead of time and keep it in the refrigerator, but be sure to bring it to room temperature before serving-that's how it tastes best! -Colleen Blasetti, Palm Coast, Florida
