This artichoke-olive bruschetta is one of the snackies that I will be preparing for Don for the Super Bowl Sunday game. The flavors are all well-balanced with just a little lemony tang. They are complimented nicely with the crunch of the toasted baguette slices.
This is a great appetizer to put together when in a hurry. It is a recipe that is quick, easy and delicious. 
The inspiration for this bruschetta came from my recipe book by Nick Stellino, entitled Mediterranean Flavors.
