Crostini with Olives and Feta Spread
Ingredients
  • 1 loaf baguette-style French bread
  • 1/2 8 ounce jar oil-packed dried tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup  chopped pitted Kalamata or ripe olives
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 3 ounce package cream cheese
  • 4 ounces  feta or goat cheese, crumbled (1 cup)
  • 2 tablespoons  milk
  • Shredded fresh basil leaves
Directions

1. For crostini, partially freeze bread. Cut bread into forty 1/4-inch-thick slices; arrange on cookie sheets. Drain tomatoes, reserving oil. Lightly brush one side of each slice with some oil. Bake in a 300 degree F oven for 6 minutes. Turn slices over; bake 6 minutes more or until golden brown.

2. Finely chop tomatoes. Stir in olives and garlic. Set aside. Beat cream cheese in a small mixing bowl until softened. Beat in feta and milk until smooth.

3. Spread feta mixture on oiled side of crostini. Top with a small dollop of tomato mixture. Garnish crostini with shredded basil. Makes 40 appetizers.
