Banh Mi Bruschetta
Ingredients
  • 24
    1/2 inch thick slices from baguette-style French bread
  • 1/3
    cup mayonnaise
  • 2
    tablespoons soy sauce
  • 6
    ounces thinly sliced ham

    English cucumber, sliced or shredded
  • 2
    carrots, shredded
  • 1/2
    cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro
  • Thin jalapeno pepper slices (optional)

Served these bruschetta recently as an appetizer. I sliced the carrots and cucumbers which helped it stay on the baguette without falling off. I avoided the jalapeno because not everyone wants to bite into it, but added a dash of hot sauce to the soy sauce - it worked fine.

Made it as a light lunch. A little too messy as an appetizer, but flavor combo is good.

What a fun app to present at a gathering! I tried these out on my neighbors, using prosciutto. The platter was the first to empty! Pretty tell-take sign of goodness, I think.

I love the creativity and versatility of this dish. It puts a whole new spin on the classic bruschetta. It works well as an appetizer, light lunch, or even afternoon tea.
