Eating Right, one day at time...

Crostinis are fun little bite sized appetizers which are little
slices of toasted baguettes topped with whatever your heart desires. I
like this healthy White Bean Topping drizzled with a little balsamic.
You can make these ahead of time, the bread will store for a few days in
an air-tight container. The white bean spread can be refrigerated a few
days. This recipe can easily be doubled.

For the White Bean
Spread:

• 2 cups Cannelini or Northern Beans
• 2
  tbsp olive oil
• 4 tbsp water
• 1 tbsp fresh thyme
• 1
  clove garlic
• salt and fresh pepper

Crostini:

• 8-1/2" piece of
  baguette (4 oz), sliced into 1/4" pieces
• garlic clove
• olive
  oil spray
• extra thyme for garnish
• balsamic vinegar
  

Cut the bread into 1/4" thin slices.
You can toast these in the oven with a little olive oil spray at 400°
turning once until toasted or grill them. I used my George Forman grill
to toast them with a light spray of olive oil. Once the bread is
toasted, lightly rub it with a
garlic clove cut in half. Now your bread is ready to top.

Pureé in a small blender or magic
bullet all the ingredients for the white bean spread. If it's too dry
you can add a little more water.

Top each piece with 2 tsp of white
bean puree and garnish with
fresh thyme. Drizzle with a
touch of balsamic right before serving.
