    Meanwhile, in small bowl, mix cheese, apricots and almonds. Top each slice of toasted bread with about 1 tablespoon cheese mixture. Broil 20 to 30 seconds or until cheese is soft. Drizzle with honey.

  • This brunch bruschetta invites a fun drink pairing such as a mimosa.
  • Try flavored roasted almonds, such as vanilla bean, in place of plain roasted almonds. Blue cheese can be used in place of the Gorgonzola.
