Ingredients

Scale

Bruschetta Dip

  • 6–7 Roma tomatoes, diced (about 3 cups)
  • 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons red onion, finely diced
  • 2–3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic glaze (plus extra for drizzling)
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

To Serve

  • Crostini, baguette slices, crackers, or tortilla chips

Instructions

  1. Prep the vegetables: Wash and dice the Roma tomatoes, chop the fresh basil, finely dice the red onion, and mince the garlic cloves to prepare all the fresh ingredients.
  2. Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, add the diced tomatoes, red onion, minced garlic, and chopped basil, mixing them gently to combine evenly.
  3. Add dressings: Drizzle the mixture with extra virgin olive oil and 1 tablespoon of balsamic glaze, which will add a rich tangy sweetness to the dip.
  4. Season: Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, ensuring the flavors are balanced and enhanced.
  5. Mix gently: Stir everything carefully to combine all ingredients without breaking down the tomatoes too much.
  6. Let it rest: Allow the dip to sit at room temperature for 10–15 minutes; this resting time lets the flavors meld beautifully.
  7. Transfer to serving dish: Spoon the prepared bruschetta dip into a serving bowl or platter.
  8. Final garnish: Drizzle additional balsamic glaze over the top for an extra pop of flavor and an attractive finish.
  9. Serve: Serve the dip alongside crostini, baguette slices, crackers, or tortilla chips for dipping and enjoy immediately.

  • For best flavor, use ripe Roma tomatoes and fresh basil.
  • You can prepare the dip a few hours ahead and refrigerate, then bring to room temperature before serving.
  • Adjust the amount of garlic and onion to your taste preference.
  • This dip is perfect for summer gatherings and pairs well with white wine.
