Recipe: Arugula Toasts
These elegant little appetizers are quick and easy to prepare and absolutely
delicious.
| Yield |

| Tools |
|
| Ingredients |
- 4 thin slices from a small loaf of whole grain or nut bread (or cut
slices from a larger loaf in half or quarters)
- 4-8 thin slices of feta cheese (depending on size of block)
- 4-8 leaves arugula
- 1 medium ripe tomato, sliced
- olive oil*
- pepper
|
| Directions |
Toast the bread until lightly tanned and somewhat crisp.
Arrange a single layer of feta cheese on each piece of toast. Top with a
single layer of arugula, then a slice of tomato. Drizzle with olive oil, grind a bit of
pepper on top, and serve immediately. |
| Notes |
*I always have three different kinds of olive oil on hand. Though they
are all organic and extra virgin, the
prices and quality vary. I use the cheapest for cooking, the mid-grade for
salad dressing, and the very best I reserve for drizzling on things like
arugula toasts and caprese. |
