    You know when you just want a little something sweet?

    Maybe it’s a little late afternoon pick-me up? or right after a meal? Or maybe something to accompany your tea or coffee? Not a full-blown splurge, just a little nibble of something that tastes sweet.

    Chocolate + Strawberry Bruschetta to the rescue! This quick, easy (and versatile) dessert is just the ticket! In just a few short minutes you can bite into a crunchy toasted bruschetta with melty dark chocolate and ripe sweet strawberries.

    And your favorite dark chocolate bar...

    I’m using one of my favs from a local Seattle organic chocolate company, Theo Chocolate.

    If you find yourself in Seattle you HAVE to check out their factory tour! I learned so much about making chocolate and some of the cool things that make Theo so special (they were the first to bring organic cocoa beans to the USA and they grow their ingredients in the most sustainable way, meeting the highest standards for organic, Fair Trade and Fair for Life).

    They have a TASTING ROOM that is insane! You can literally taste every type of chocolate that they make. Plates of samples line the place and it’s a chocolate lovers paradise. Heres a link if you want to know more about Theo Chocolate. ( I’m not affiliated in any way, nor are they sponsoring this post…I just happen to really love their chocolate and the good things they are doing …oh and the tasting room!)

    Back to Bruschetta…

    Break the chocolate bar into small pieces....

    You’ll toast the baguette slices in a large frying pan (coating each side with a very small amount of butter or coconut oil). Once the baguette slices are toasty you’ll top them with the chocolate pieces. Turn off the heat on the skillet and cover the pan. In a few minutes the chocolate will be nice and melted.

    Top with a sliced strawberry and a sprinkle of chopped nuts and prepare to satisfy that sweet tooth! Mmmm…..Mmmmmm….Mmmm!

    strawberry and chocolate bruschetta

    The beauty of this recipe is that it’s completely adaptable. In both the quantity you make as well as the fruit you use to top the chocolate. If you want to make just one bruschetta you could totally do that! (freeze the sliced baguette pieces and pull out your desired amount at any time). So easy and so versatile.

    Try topping with raspberries, banana slices, clementines, pineapple, kiwi etc. Including a few different fruits and serving on platter would make a beautiful dessert to take to a party or potluck.
