Notes
To Prepare the Crostini Toasts:
Prepare the crostini toasts: Lay out the Italian bread slices on a cookie sheet. Lightly brush each bread with olive oil. The new silicone brushes are great. They wash up really easy.
Put the cookie sheet on the top shelf under the broiler. Don't do anything else. Just stand there and keep checking the bread and don't let them burn. It only takes a minute or two.
After the toasts are lightly browned, remove from the oven. They are ready to use anytime. You can keep them in the refrigerator for later use too.
