Crostini

Crostini are toasted bread ready for yummy toppings. We love it for Bruschetta!

Crispy, yet not hard. These Crostini are delicious as they come out of the oven, or topped with tasty condiments, like Whipped Feta Spread, or Olive Tapenade.

See my post on how to make Bruschetta, a delicious and easy party food, or appetizer. Your guests can make their own, and customize them, as it’s so versatile. You can make it year round, so this recipe is a winner!
