Tomato and Pea Crostini
















This was my appetizer dish for a fourth of July party and became a total success. It is very simple to make and does not take long. The puree is simply frozen peas, garlic and Parmesan cheese. Of course there was olive oil added for the consistency as well as salt and pepper for taste. The Baguette that I bought, I decided to buy a day in advance to let sit for a day, in order for it to hold up better to the topping. I did make two batches, one using canned peas and the other using frozen peas. All I will say is the canned peas were not meant to be used for this dish, the canned peas turned out to be to salty and give off a very unpleasant color.
