Last Minute Thanksgiving: 10 Vegan Appetizers You Can Whip Up in No TimeThese bites come together so fast, you'll have time to spare |
PHOTO 5/11
· 1 cup small frozen peas, thawed and drained
· 1/4-1/2 cup nutritional yeast, plus a little extra for garnish (or grated parmesan cheese for non-vegans)
· 1/2 cup packed fresh mint leaves
· 1/4 cup packed fresh basil leaves
· olive oil
· 3 cloves garlic, peeled
· Juice of 1 lemon
· 1 baguette or bread of your choice
Instructions:
1. In a small food processor, combine peas, nutritional yeast (or parmesan), mint, basil, lemon juice, and 2 cloves of garlic, and blend. Slowly stream olive oil into the food processor while blending, until the mixture is combined. Spoon it into a small mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper.
2. Preheat the broiler to 450°F. Slice the baguette at an angle into slices no thicker than 1 inch.
3. In a small saucepan, on low to medium heat, melt 1/4 cup butter and add the remaining garlic, finely chopped. Cook just until the garlic is fragrant, and transfer to a small bowl. Brush the crostini with butter garlic mixture on both sides. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, place crostini on the baking sheet, and broil just until golden brown, turning once.
4. Once the crostini are golden brown, remove them from the oven and top with pea pesto, sprinkle with nutritional yeast, a drizzle of olive oil, and fresh cracked pepper if desired.
