Cucumber Feta Toasts

 I came across this recipe in an old issue of the Everyday Food Magazine and thought it sounded really good. I made it today for lunch and loved them, and so did Hudson! They would make a great summer appetizer and they are super easy to throw together. I will be making these again!

Ingredients:

  • 1/2 baguette
  • 2 teaspoons plus 4 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 3 ounces feta
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • Coarse salt and ground pepper
  • 1 small English cucumber, thinly sliced crosswise

Directions:

Preheat oven or toaster oven to 450 degrees. Split baguette lengthwise and lightly brush cut sides with 2 teaspoons olive oil. Bake until golden around edges, 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mash together feta, 4 teaspoons oil, and lemon juice with a fork. Season with salt and pepper. Spread feta mixture evenly over toasted baguette and top with cucumber. Season with salt, pepper, lemon juice, and a drizzle of oil. Cut into pieces to serve.
