Sourdough Canapes

Courses: Starters and appetizers
Serves: 1 people

Recipe Ingredients

1   Baguette French bread - cut in 1/2" slices
  Cream cheese - softened
  Pesto sauce
  Roasted red pepper slices

Recipe Instructions

A great little cafe in Reno (yes, we don't all eat in casinos) serves little sourdough baguette slices topped with, in order, cream cheese, pesto sauce and roasted red pepper slices, and it's wild!

My wife and I have made it a few times, and now that roasted red peppers are readily available in jars from most supermarkets, its a pretty easy task. Just soften the cream cheese, spread a nice little layer on the sourdough slice, then a dollop of your favorite pesto, and a little slice of red pepper. People with an aversion to raw fish have to be assured that the red pepper really is vegetable matter, and not something of the sea, as it has an almost lox-like appearance.
