HERBED BEAN SPREAD WITH BAGUETTE TOASTS

Steps:

• Make toasts:
• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Cut baguette crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. In a saucepan melt butter with salt to taste over moderate heat and brush butter on one side of each slice. Arrange baguette slices, buttered sides up, on 2 large baking sheets and toast in upper and middle thirds of oven until golden, about 12 minutes. (Toasts may be made 2 days ahead and kept in an airtight container.)
• Make spread:
• Drain beans in a colander. Gently rinse beans and drain well. Mince parsley. In a food processor blend together all spread ingredients except oil until smooth. With motor running, add oil in a slow stream, blending until incorporated, and season spread with salt and pepper. (Spread may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered. Bring spread to room temperature before serving.)

TOASTED BAGUETTE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Slice the baguette diagonally into 1/4-inch slices. You should have 20 to 25 slices. Place the slices in 1 layer on a baking sheet. Brush each slice with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Bake the toasts for 15 to 20 minutes or until they are crisp and browned. Serve at room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet. Add the green onion, garlic and sage and cook for about 2 minutes. Add beans, water and chicken granules and continue to cook until liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes, then add the cheese. Cool to room temperature. Place bean mixture in a food processor and process until smooth.
• Rub the bread on both sides with the cut side of garlic, and then brush lightly with remaining oil. Place on a baking sheet and place under broiler for about 1 minute or until golden on one side and turn for another minute. Place about 2 tablespoons of spread on each slice.

HERB TOAST

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a Silpat baking mat; set aside. In a small bowl, combine parsley, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, and oil.

CHILLI BEAN BAGUETTES

Steps:

• Heat grill to high. Stir the first six ingredients together in a medium pan. Bring to the boil, then turn down the heat and simmer for 4-5 mins.
• Meanwhile, spread the baguette slices over a baking sheet and slide under the grill. Toast on one side, turn over and sprinkle the second side with the cheese. Grill for another 1-2 mins until melted and golden brown. Season the beans to taste and serve over the cheesy toasts.

HERBED CREAM CHEESE BRUSCHETTA ON BAGUETTE TOASTS

Steps:

• Combine cream cheese, garlic powder, marjoram, thyme, and pepper in a food processor until smooth. May be made up to one week in advance. (Bring to room temperature before serving.).
• Preheat broiler or toaster oven broiler. Cover broiler pan or cookie sheet with aluminum foil, folded up at the sides. Broil pepper quarters, peel side up, close to the heat source, until the skin begins to bubble and char. Remove pepper to a closed container until cool enough to handle. The blackened skin will slough off easily; discard it. Pour any juices from the foil and container into a large bowl.
• Into the same bowl, chop or small dice vegetables in proportions that please your eye and palate. Mix well before adding cheese. Swirl in olive oil and vinegar and stir gently so the feta keeps its shape. Season to taste. Allow to rest at room temperature.
• Brush one side of each slice of bread with olive oil. Broil briefly, just until golden. Spread each with herbed cream cheese and a heaping spoonful of relish. Serve immediately.

• Bring a large pot of salted water to the boil and cook the broad beans for 5-6 mins until tender. Immediately plunge into a bowl of ice-cold water. Squeeze the broad beans from their pods and transfer to the bowl of a food processor with the olive oil, feta, honey, lemon juice and dill fronds. Season with black pepper and blitz to a smooth purée.
• Meanwhile, brush the baguette slices with some olive oil and toast or griddle until golden. Rub with the cut side of a halved garlic clove. Finely chop the blanched asparagus spears and toss in a little olive oil with a squeeze of lemon juice. Spread the purée over the crostini and top with the sliced asparagus and some extra dill. Leftover purée will keep in the fridge for up to two days.
