Bruschetta Time!

March 18, 2008

Lovely little bits of thing on good bread — what a marvelous idea!

1) Crumbled blue cheese drizzled with honey (Gorgonzola works, too.  I would eat this for dessert, even with no chocolate in sight)

2) Walnuts and Parmesan cheese with a bit of lemon juice and oil in a food processor, and if you’re fancy you can garnish with more Parm

3) Smashed peas with mint, oil, salt and pepper in the food processor, then garnish with mint

3b) You can also throw in a mess of garlic and a bit of parm with not quite as much mint

4) Chickpeas with balsamic vinegar, parsley, garlic, oil, salt and pepper in the food processor (I love my food processor)

5) Minced mushrooms, garlic, olive oil, parm, and thyme and parsley sauteed

6) And yay to the Queen Creek olive oil mill  for making an olive and red pepper tapenade that is very nice on toasted bread and a bit of melted Mozzarella
