Nancy,

Make the bread slices in the oven before you go to church, even spread the ooasted garlic spread on them. Then, when you get to church, top with one or more of the suggested toppings.
This is soooo good - and relatively inexpensive.
Roasted Garlic Crustini with assorted toppings

roast 4 heads of garlic

12 ½ inch diagonal slices Italian bread

¼ cup olive oil

pureed garlic from 4 heads roasted garlic

topping options:

shaved Parmisan cheese

fresh creamy goat cheese at room temperature.

roasted red peppers cut into thin strips

oil-packed sun dreid tomatoes cut into strips

Roma tomatoes, thinly sliced

fresh basil leaves cut into thin strips

Balsamic vinegar

thinly sliced proshuto

sliced fresh mozzerella cheese



Make a puree out of the roasted garlic by adding just a little olive oil and mashing them with a fork.

preheat oven to 375

Brush bread slices with olive oil and place on baking sheet

bake until golden, 12 to 15 minutes.

remove from oven and cool to room temperature.

spread pureed garlic evenly on toasted bread.

top with any of the options listed above or make and assortment.


to roast garlic: Cut the top off the garlic head and put about a teaspoon of olive oil on it.
oven:  wrap in foil and Bake about 1 hour at 350
microwave:  wrap in plastic wrap and cook on high 1 minute.
cloves will be soft. let cool until you can handle them easily and just separate the cloves and squirt out the garlic into a bowl.

Hello everyone,
We are having a reception at church Sunday night. They want everyone to bring little appetizers. I am trying to think of something different to take. If you have any different ones please post some for me.
Thanks.
Nancy Williams
