These crostini were a great way to use up some leftover bread. They were also a lot cheaper than buying them from the store.

The crostini were a bit too crispy for my liking. I think I would have preferred them if I had baked them for a shorter amount of time.

I loved the combination of flavors in this recipe. The goat cheese, roasted red peppers, and basil were a perfect match.

These crostini were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would have preferred them if I had used less olive oil.
