Bruschetta with Gorgonzola Mascarpone and Onions

The bruschetta with gorgonzola mascarpone and onions is a super tasty dish to serve as both an appetizer and a starter. For the recipe, I used ciabatta bread, but rustic bread is also fine, which, once toasted, is topped with a delicious cream of gorgonzola and mascarpone, then garnished with onions, in this case, red onions to provide a color contrast, in sweet and sour sauce that perfectly complements the two types of cheese.
