Bruschetta on Pineapple sauce


Bruchetta

About:

Bruschetta is an Italian appetizer recipe made toasted crusty bread with your favourite toppings. Here I used tomato, bell peppers, onion and sweet ripe pineapple as toppings. Using pineapple juice as a spread makes the bread tangy and sweet with its flavour.

I used homemade sourdough bread (Recipe link), alternatively any bread can be used.

Sweet Potato baked

About:

A simple and healthy wedges make a great alternative to potato, which are packed with vitamins and dietary fiber. These are healthy and tasty alternative to regular chips. I tried to bake it without any oil to make it low cal but however feel free to include if desired.  These wedges are kids-friendly and adjust spices as per taste.

I served this with Chive garlic dip (Recipe link)
