Indulgence meets simplicity with these irresistible Cheddar Crostinis. Crispy baguette slices, toasted to golden perfection, provide the ideal canvas for the star of the show: sharp cheddar cheese. As it melts and melds with the warm bread, a symphony of flavors and textures unfolds. Combine a dollop of tangy dijon and a sprinkle of fresh herbs for a mouthwatering combination that's as elegant as it is easy. These Cheddar Crostinis are the ultimate crowd-pleaser, perfect for your next gathering or even a quiet evening in – a true testament to the magic of uncomplicated, yet utterly delicious, appetizers. Oh, and they’re also the perfect accompaniment to my Oven-Roasted Tomato Soup.
