Crostini, Greek Style
INGREDIENTS:
1/2 loaf french bread
1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
4 oz goat cheese, crumbled
1 can artichoke hearts, chopped
20 cherry tomatoes, quartered
4 oz feta cheese, crumbled
1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Cut the loaf of french bread into 1 inch thick pieces. By making the cuts vertical you increase the length of the piece. Set slices aside on a baking pan.
3. In a bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, pepper and oregano.
4. Slather each side of the french bread pieces with the olive oil. Bake for five minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, turn the slices over and add the goat cheese, artichoke hearts, tomatoes and feta. Bake for 15 more minutes.
This crostini uses goat and feta cheeses, so do not over bake to get the crumbled cheese to melt or you might burn the bread. The cheeses will come out of the oven hot and very soft.
