Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 1/2 ounces sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil preferably or can use dried)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced
5 basil leaves, chopped
1 green onion, chopped
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pinch sugar
4 ounces goat cheese
1 loaf French baguette, sliced into 1/4 inch slices
1/2 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder

Steps:

  • Prepare the sun-dried tomatoes if dried. To re-hydrate sun-dried tomatoes, place them in boiling water for 5 minutes, then drain.
  • Place the tomatoes and remaining ingredients; except goat cheese, in a container and refrigerate for 4 hours. Process in a food processor until smooth.
  • Prepare cayenne toasts by preheating oven to 200 degrees F. Combine ingredients, other than bread, in food processor, mixing well. Lay bread slices on a cookie sheet. Brush tops lightly with spread. Cook 1 hour until crisp. Cool.
  • To serve, place sun-dried tomato spread on cayenne toasts and top with a sprinkle of goat cheese.

I made these toasts with whole wheat bread and they were delicious! I also added a bit of garlic to the sun-dried tomato spread. These toasts are a great way to use up leftover bread.

These toasts were a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved them. He said they were the perfect snack to enjoy with a cold beer.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but these toasts were surprisingly mild. The cayenne pepper added just the right amount of heat. I would definitely recommend these to anyone looking for a quick and easy appetizer.

These toasts were absolutely delicious! The cayenne pepper gave them a nice kick, and the sun-dried tomato spread was the perfect complement. I will definitely be making these again.
