Herbed Seafood Bruschetta

Herbed Seafood Bruschetta
Recipe Tip
Ovations for Olives
Replacing saturated fats with unsaturated fats from olives may help lower blood cholesterol. But fats are high in calories so keep portions small.
Variation
Instead of letting guests assemble the bruschetta, you can spoon the seafood mixture onto the toasts and garnish each with a sprig of fresh mint.
Do-Ahead
Toast slices for bruschetta up to 1 day ahead. Cool and store in airtight container at room temperature.
Substitution
You can substitute 3 tablespoons chopped fresh chives or basil rather than using 1 tablespoon each of chives, basil and mint.
