Cheese Lover's Crostini

Step 1Heat a griddle or grill pan over medium-high heat. Drizzle the bread slices with a little olive oil. Add as many slices to the pan as will fit in a single layer and cook on both sides until slightly crisp and browned. Remove from the pan and set aside to cool. Repeat with the remaining bread slices.

Step 2Now make different versions of crostini: Layer the brie slices, spread the herbed cheese, spoon the pesto and crumble the goat cheese on the toasts.

Step 3And that’s just the beginning of the fun! Spoon cherry preserves on the brie version, lay a couple of tomato halves on the herbed cream cheese version, press a couple of olives into the goat cheese version, and for the pesto version, how about a cube of mozzarella with a little extra pesto on top? Yes, please!

Step 4Back to the herbed cheese–tomato version: Just before serving, drizzle with a little olive oil and top with a little parmesan. For the pesto-mozzarella version, top with basil leaves to make it extra pretty!
