About

Ben’s first true love was Italian food. One of his fondest memories is visiting his local Italian restaurant and ordering their classic bruschetta. Done well using fresh quality ingredients, this simple appetiser can be an absolute joy. Here we switch things up using thyme and avocado for a So Vegan spin.
