This recipe is about as easy as it gets, and it's so versatile! You can season the bruschetta mixture with your favorite spices, and if fresh tomatoes and peppers aren't available, you can substitute the veggies with whatever you like. It all tastes good on top of toast (and with a generous smear of creamy, garlicky homemade cashew ricotta)! If you have extra bruschetta mixture left over, you can toss it with pasta for a fresh and quick meal.
