Preparation steps

For the tapenade: Blend all the ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Store the tapenade in an airtight container until ready to use.

For the vinaigrette: In a food processor, combine all of the ingredients except for the olive oil, chives and black pepper and blend until smooth. With the motor running slowly, add the olive oil in a slow, steady stream until the vinaigrette has emulsified. Transfer the vinaigrette to a bowl. Add the chives and season to taste with salt and pepper. Store in a airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to use.

For the sun-dried tomato bruschetta: Preheat grill. Toss your bread rounds lightly in olive oil. Arrange bread on a baking sheet and lightly toast on each side. Spread each toast round with a little tapenade, top with sun-dried tomato and an olive. Garnish with a basil leaf.

For the prosciutto, Parmesan, and caper bruschetta: Preheat grill. Toss your bread rounds lightly in olive oil. Arrange bread on a baking sheet and lightly toast on each side. Spread each toast round with a little tapenade, top with Prosciutto, capers and shaved Parmesan cheese.

For the avocado bruschetta: Preheat grill. Toss your bread rounds lightly in olive oil. Arrange bread on a baking sheet and lightly toast on each side. Top each toast with a fan of avocado slices. Place one half of a cherry tomato on top and spoon vinaigrette on top. Garnish with a parsley leaf.
