Parmesan and Walnut Bruschetta
1 (3 oz.) pkg. Parmesan cheese (about
3/4 c. grated)
1/2 c. chopped walnuts
1/4 tsp. salt
3/4 c. olive oil
1/2 loaf (4 oz.) narrow French bread
These delicious hot hors d'oeuvres are perfect with a glass of red
wine before dinner. Or serve them as a special bread alongside a
bowl of soup. Makes 24. Heat broiler. Grate cheese. Combine 1/2
cup cheese, 1/4 cup walnuts and the salt in a food processor.
Process until finely chopped. Add 1/4 cup oil and process until
fairly smooth. Cut bread on the diagonal into 24 half inch slices.
Brush on both sides with remaining 1/2 cup oil. Toast bread on
baking sheet under the broiler, about 30 seconds per side. Remove
from oven and spread one side of each slice with walnut cheese
mixture. Sprinkle with remaining cheese. Press remaining walnuts
on top. Broil until cheese begins to melt, about 30 seconds. Serve
immediately.
