Halloumi Bruschetta Recipe with Tomato and Capsicum is an Indian-Italian fusion appetizer recipe. First time I had a tomato Bruschetta (pronounced "brusketta") at an Italian restaurant & fell in love with the freshness & the simplicity of the recipe (and the most the best part being it can be prepared within 10 minutes).

Although the traditional tomato bruschetta has basil in it, I added my favourite Halloumi cheese to this Halloumi Bruschetta Recipe along with some Indian flavours like red capsicum. This can be eaten as a starter or an evening snack. Kids are surely going to fall for its rich colors & the cheese in it.

Editor's Notes:

Note: If Halloumi cheese is not available, grill the bread and spoon out the topping of the veggies over it, and serve immediately, for the bread might turn soggy without halloumi cheese!
