Steps
- 1Heat up the broiler to a high temperature setting.
- 2Begin by slicing the bread into eight pieces that are each 1/2-inch thick. Spread a layer of Brie cheese on top of each slice.

Broil for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the cheese becomes soft and bubbly while the edges of the bread turn a light golden brown color.
Cultural note
Brie cheese and French baguette are classic French ingredients, highlighting the cultural influence in this recipe. Blueberries, a native fruit of North America, add a sweet and tart contrast to the creamy brie, creating a unique fusion of flavors.
Seasonal note
Blueberries are in season during the summer months, making this salad ideal for summer gatherings or picnics. Spring greens are also freshest during the spring season, adding a vibrant touch to the dish.
Health note
