Strawberries are in season right now. You know what that means, tons of strawberries to cook with! Better Homes and Gardens May 2009 issue has lots of ideas. Of course I can never let a recipe be, so the strawberry posts will all be my rendition.
Strawberry & Cheese Bruschetta
Makes 6 slices
You will need:
- 1 baguette
- 1 T olive oil
- 4 oz. Sage Derby cheese
- 1 1/2 cups sliced strawberries
- 1/2 cup arugula
- Basil finely sliced
- sea salt
- freshly ground pepper
Heat the broiler. Cut baguette in half lengthwise, then into thirds crosswise. Place cut sides up on a large cookie sheet. Brush bread with the 1 T of olive oil. Broil for 1 1/2 to minutes 3 to 4 inches from heat or until lightly toasted. Slice and divide the cheese among the bread slices. Top with sliced strawberries. Broil 2 to 3 minutes or until cheese is melted and berries have softened. Remove from broiler, top with arugula and basil. Drizzle additional oil if desired. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
