Parmesan Whole Wheat Crostini
Making these Whole Wheat Crostinis is so simple it's silly. But their flavor is complex because of a super ingredient: garlic.
Garlic makes basically anything taste amazing, and we're not afraid to admit we rely on it pretty often.
These are great to put out on fruit and cheese plate at a party or to serve alongside a hearty soup or an Italian meal. Since they're small, it will introduce a little portion control (unlike tearing off chunks of a loaf of bread).
INGREDIENTS
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 10 slices fresh, crusty whole wheat bread or baguette
- 2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
DIRECTIONS
- In small bowl, combine oil and garlic. Brush bread slices equally with mixture.
- Sprinkle equally with parmesan cheese and broil 3-5 minutes until toasted.
WHY WE LOVE THIS RECIPE
Remember when we mentioned garlic? It’s anti-inflammatory and its cancer-preventing powers are so strong some research shows it may even slow or stop the growth of tumors in some tissues.
