Eggplant and Olive Whole Wheat Crostini image

(CROSTINI DI PANE INTEGRALE CON MELANZANE E OLIVE) A simple hors d'oeuvre with rich flavor and very little fat. Note that the onion is sautéed in broth instead of oil or butter; this is a good way to cut fat and calories considerably.

Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Nonstick vegetable oil spray
1 1 1/4-pound eggplant, trimmed, halved lengthwise
1 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons canned low-salt chicken broth
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 cup canned crushed tomatoes with added puree
2 tablespoons dry white wine
3 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
3 1/2-inch-thick country-style whole wheat bread slices (each about 5x3 inches), toasted, quartered
2 tablespoons chopped pitted brine-cured black olives (such as Kalamata)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray baking sheet with vegetable oil spray. Place eggplant halves cut side down on prepared baking sheet. Bake until eggplant is brown and tender, about 30 minutes. Cool slightly. Using large spoon, scoop out eggplant pulp (discard skin). Coarsely chop eggplant; transfer to bowl.
  • Combine onion and broth in medium nonstick skillet. Sauté over medium heat until onion is tender, about 10 minutes. Add garlic; stir 1 minute. Add tomatoes; simmer until flavors blend, about 8 minutes. Add eggplant and wine; simmer until mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat. Cool.

OLIVE AND ROASTED PEPPER CROSTINI



Olive and Roasted Pepper Crostini image

Based on a recipe from Jill Sklar's and Annabel Cohen's book, Eating for Acid Reflux. They say in its intro, "An appetizer you can make in a hurry, these crostini are delicious as appetizers, to serve with soup or salad or anytime you need a quick snack. They exclude reflux triggers like tomatoes and garlic, yet still retain the flavors that make these such a popular appetizer choice. For variety, add ingredients, change ingredients, and develop your own repertoire of crostini." I haven't tried this yet.

OLIVE-CHEESE CROSTINI



Olive-Cheese Crostini image

If you love olives, you will LOVE this spread! This makes about 38-40 of the most delicious crostini appetizers, and they will be the first to vanish at you get together! Make certain to hand-squeeze out the excess moisture in the olives before using in this recipe. Small pumpernickel party slices also work well in place of the French baguette! I strongly suggest to chill the mixture for about 5 hours or even overnight to blend the flavors before topping on the bread, just warm very slightly for a few seconds in the microwave to make spreading easier. If you want lots of olive topping, then double the recipe but do not double the garlic amount!

Tips:

  • Choose ripe and flavorful tomatoes: The fresher the tomatoes, the better the crostini will taste. Look for tomatoes that are bright red and have a sweet smell.
  • Use good quality olive oil: Extra virgin olive oil is the best choice for this recipe. It has a rich flavor and aroma that will complement the other ingredients.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the crostini, make sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and becoming soggy.
  • Serve the crostini immediately: Egg and olive crostini are best served immediately after they are made. This will ensure that the bread is crispy and the eggs are still runny.

Conclusion:

Egg and olive crostini are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is both flavorful and visually appealing. Whether you are serving them at a party or enjoying them as a snack, egg and olive crostini are sure to be a hit.
