How To Make new orleans-style muffuletta bruschetta appetizer

Step 1

Combine black olives through black pepper in a food processor and pulse 8-10 times until coarse - not smooth.

Step 2

Slice the bread into 1/4 inch slices and arrange on a sheet pan. Spread 1 teaspoon of olive mixture on bread.
Step 3

If your bread is narrow, you might need to slice your cheese and meats in half. Next add cheese on top of olive mixture followed by a slice of salami, then ham, then sopressata. Add one more slice of provolone on top of meats. For larger gatherings,slice each piece of bread in half to make them easier to eat. Garnish each piece of bruschetta with an olive run through a toothpick.
Step 4

Arrange bruschetta on a platter and garnish with extra parsley and toothpick studded mini mozzarella balls.
