Cooking Tips

• Choose a crusty bread, such as baguette or ciabatta, for the best texture.
• Feel free to add some grated Parmesan cheese on top of the mushroom mixture for extra flavor.
• You can also garnish the bruschetta with fresh herbs like parsley or chives.

Storage and Serving

• Bruschetta is best served immediately after assembling to maintain the crispiness of the bread.
• If you have leftover mushroom mixture and ham, store them separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, simply toast the bread slices again and warm up the mushroom mixture and ham in a skillet before assembling.
