Store assembled bruschetta in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 day. However, for the best texture, keep components separate and assemble just before serving.
Absolutely! Omit the mussels and add grilled zucchini, roasted bell peppers, or marinated artichokes for a delicious vegetarian version.
Try using thick slices of grilled eggplant, portobello mushrooms, or even toasted low-carb bread for a keto-friendly option.
Yes! Toast the bread, prepare the feta mixture, chop the tomatoes, and drain the mussels up to 4 hours in advance. Assemble right before serving to avoid sogginess.
