Ingredients

  • 1-1/2 C canned white beans, rinsed and drained well
  • 3 med. tomatoes, seeded & chopped
  • 1/4 C pitted kalamata olives
  • 4 -6 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/4 C chopped fresh basil
  • 1 tbsp. minced fresh garlic
  • 1 baguette sliced into 1/2" rounds*
  • 5 to 6 oz. soft fresh goat cheese

Directions

Combine beans, tomatoes, olives, 4 tbsp. olive oil, basil and garlic. Season w/ salt & pepper. Baguette slices can be basted lightly w/olive oil and broiled or toasted (no oil necessary) in a toaster until golden and crisp. Spread toasts w/goat cheese, then top with bean mixture.
*A great recipe for using up 1 or 2-day old baguette that's too stale to eat on its own.
