About the Recipe
The story: This seasonal Spring Garlic recipe was invented by Sharon, taste tested by Tony, and presented by Garlic Breath Farm to a sold out show at Marie's Garden, in Spring of 2024. The success of that event and so many others is thanks to collaborations with Charity Blooms and Marie Wilkinson Food Pantry.

Ingredients
Ingredients:
1 French Bread (3-foot long)
1/4 cup Spring garlic leaves- finely cut with scissors
1/4 cup Olive oil
1 cup diced tomatoes
1/4 cup fresh Basil
3 tbsp balsamic vinegar (optional)
Preparation
Directions:
In order to toast the Crostini, you will either need to heat up a grill, griddle, or oven to 375°. If you’re using an oven, then you’ll also need a cookie sheet to place them on if you’re using a grill or a griddle.
To prepare the Crostini, begin by trimming off the round edges of the French bread.
Next, slice the bread into 1-inch-thick pieces and then brush one side of it with olive oil.
You will place the pieces directly onto the grates or cooking surface.
Once the bread is toasted by using any of the devices listed above, place toasted Crostini on a platter and begin to dress it by adding diced tomatoes, shredded basil and finally cut spring garlic leaves.
Drizzle with optional balsamic vinegar, or enjoy as-is.
