Tomato Avocado Bruschetta makes a perfect light lunch or easy appetizer.

I absolutely love fresh tomatoes. One of my favorite things about summer is eating just simple tomato sandwiches. Did I just reveal how truly Southern I am??

Today we’re making up a simple light lunch made with some fresh tomatoes! This Tomato Avocado Bruschetta is made gluten-free simply because the bread was GF. But you can make it using whatever style deli bread you have on hand!

Now I realize this is one of those recipes that probably really doesn’t need a step by step tutorial, but I was having fun with a borrowed camera & was taking pictures of everything! So cut the bread into thirds & brush some olive oil on each piece. Throw the bread under the broiler until it gets crisp & golden brown.

While the bread is crisping up, slice up those delicious tomatoes, some ripe avocados & fresh mozzarella.

Top each piece of crisp bread with the layers of goodness, season it with some salt & pepper and then drizzle it with some extra olive oil. Pop those bad boys in the oven until the cheese has started to melt & you’ve got a super easy & super delicious light lunch, snack or appetizer.
