Greek Salad Bruschetta
Updated May 21, 2019
We’ve been attending and hosting a lot of BBQ’s this summer. I am not complaining, I love eating outside with friends, family, and good food. Josh and I usually eat outside on our patio, even when we don’t have company. It’s hard to stay inside when the weather is so nice. Utah is hot, but luckily it cools down in the evenings:) One of my favorite appetizers to make for summer parties is this Greek Salad Bruschetta. It is easy, fresh, and a great way to use up garden cucumbers and tomatoes.
To make the bruschetta, I cut a French baguette into slices. You can toast the bread in the oven or on the grill. We already had the grill on and I didn’t want to heat up the house, so Josh grilled the baguette slices. Plus, I like the slight smoky flavor the grill adds to the bread.
The Greek bruschetta topping is easy to make. Dice up tomatoes, cucumbers, kalamata olives, and red onion. Stir the ingredients together with red wine vinegar, feta cheese, and season with a dash of oregano, salt, and pepper. Top the baguette slices with the Greek salad topping and serve.
Put your garden cucumbers and tomatoes to good use this summer and make this Greek Salad Bruschetta. This easy appetizer is perfect for any summer barbeque or party. It also makes a great healthy snack or light lunch.

This is perfect for those hot summer days. I love the idea of grilling the bread.

I love making Bruschetta. They are quick to make .. easy to prep and you can always add your own twist.
This looks so pretty – I just had something similar to this topping as a salad for dinner, with bell peppers too. As you mention, this is a great way to use all the tomatoes and cucumbers that are in season.
that looks fantastic! i HEART Greek Salads! I make my own at least once a week! I will have to figure out a better sub for tomato though, not a huge fan here, maybe artichoke hearts….YUM! thanks for the GREAT idea!
this is my kinda meal – bright, fresh, light and the veggies are perfect this time of year!
I love this idea! I’m always making the Italian version of bruschetta, but I love the Greek variation. Very creative!
Utah is perfect in the evenings 🙂 Loving this bruschetta…so fresh and yummy!
Looks perfect! I’ll take one (or probably 2!). Sending hugs and prayers your way as you are in the home stretch of your pregnancy. It is an exciting time for sure! ♥- Katrina
yum! this is just what I need after two weeks in Greece.. more mediterranean food! you just can’t beat it.
Any appetizer that doesn’t require turning on the oven is a good one in my books! Great looking dish.

This recipe looks delicious. The ingredients are so fresh and the flavors sound so good together.
