Food Monday ~ Summer nibbles

These nibbles beat crisps into the back water any day and they can be used as an alternative to croutons in a Caesar salad.

Summer Nibbles
Preheat the oven to 140°C

Day old baguette sliced ‘lace’ thin.*
olive oil
clove of garlic, finely chopped
pepper & salt
oregano
basil
Parmesan cheese, finely grated

Spread the baguette slices on a baking tray and set to one side.
Warm a little olive oil and add the garlic, oregano, basil, pepper & salt, stir to blend and brush on bread slices.
Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and bake for 10 to 15 minutes.

*Try sour dough or ciabatta bread as an interesting substitute.

** The other day I made my Slow Peppers and used the left the over juice to brush over the baguette slices before baking. Yummy!
