  • Author: Olivia
  • Total Time: 25 minutes

Ingredients

– 2 cups fresh peas (or frozen peas, thawed)
– 1 tablespoon olive oil
– 1 tablespoon lemon juice
– 1 clove garlic, minced
– ¼ teaspoon salt
– ¼ teaspoon black pepper
– 1 tablespoon fresh mint or basil, chopped
– 1 baguette or crusty bread, sliced
– Additional toppings (optional): crumbled feta cheese, balsamic glaze, or a sprinkle of chili flakes


Instructions

Creating this incredible pea bruschetta is simple when you follow these steps:

1. Prepare the Peas: If using fresh peas, blanch them in boiling water for 1-2 minutes. Drain and immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking.
2. Blend the Mixture: In a food processor, combine the peas, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, pepper, and herbs. Pulse until smooth but still slightly chunky for texture.
3. Toast the Bread: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Arrange the bread slices on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Toast in the oven for about 5-7 minutes or until golden brown and crisp.
4. Assemble the Bruschetta: Remove the toasted bread from the oven. Spoon the pea mixture generously onto each slice.
5. Add Toppings: If desired, sprinkle with feta cheese, drizzle with balsamic glaze, or add a pinch of chili flakes for heat.
6. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your delicious pea bruschetta while the bread is still warm and crispy.

These steps will help you create a delightful appetizer that is both easy to prepare and enjoyable to eat.
