This tasty bruschetta comes together in about 15 fast minutes.

It has a lot of flavor, but not a lot of ingredients. Sometimes less really is more and this simple appetizer is a guaranteed crowd pleaser!

You can make this White Bean Bruschetta up to two days ahead and store it in the refrigerator, just bring it to room temperature before you serve it.

You can simplify it even further by skipping the toasted baguette slices and serve it as a dip with crackers or bread instead.

It’s versatile and you can adapt it to your specific menu and plans.

I am not planning to do any entertaining this year, though I was very tempted by Aimee’s Holiday Cookie Swap over on Simple Bites (I’m definitely hosting my own version next year!).

However, I will still be putting this quick appetizer recipe to use as I attend various potlucks and parties this month.

I am even planning to use it as a starter at my big holiday meal for the family.

This is one of my favorite finger foods!
