Zesty Salsa Sauce- 2 Tbsp olive oil

Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Begin by thoroughly washing and draining all your vegetables: the bell peppers, onion, and green onion. Finely dice them into small pieces. Chopping the vegetables finely will help them meld beautifully with the sauce and enhance the overall texture.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the finely diced vegetables and the mixed baby greens. Add the olive oil (2 Tbsp), tomato sauce (1 Tbsp), and honey (1 Tbsp). Gently toss everything together until all the ingredients are well incorporated and coated with the sauce.
Step 3
Next, stir in the lemon juice (1 Tbsp) for a bright, refreshing zest, and a pinch of salt to balance the flavors. Mix gently again. The lemon juice not only brightens the taste but also highlights the natural flavors of the fresh ingredients.
Step 4
Lightly toast your baguette slices until they are golden and crisp. You can do this in an oven or on a skillet. Once toasted, generously spoon the prepared vegetable salsa mixture onto each baguette slice. The contrast between the crunchy vegetables and the savory baguette is truly delightful.
Step 5
This bruschetta makes a perfect brunch item when served alongside a freshly brewed cup of aromatic Americano coffee. The warmth of the toasted bread, the freshness of the toppings, and the invigorating coffee create a truly satisfying morning meal.
Step 6
This recipe is not only easy to make but also visually stunning and incredibly delicious, making it ideal for entertaining guests or for a delightful home brunch. Enjoy a healthy and flavorful meal that celebrates the vibrant taste of fresh ingredients!
