This appetizer starts with fresh toasted Italian bread slices. Top that off with spicy citrus marinated veggies and you have a winning finger food. All ready just in no time. 

Lay out the bread slices on a baking sheet. Lightly brush each slice of bread with oil. (The new silicone brushes are great for this, and they wash up really easily.)

Put the baking sheet under the broiler. Don’t do anything else. Just stand there and keep checking the bread and don’t let it burn. It only takes a couple of minutes.

After the toasts are lightly browned, remove the sheet from the oven. You can make these ahead of time and keep them in the refrigerator for later use, too.

In a large bowl, mix all the remaining ingredients together, except the thyme.

Top each toast with the chickpea mixture just before serving. Garnish with fresh thyme.

Your Chickpea Salad Crostini is all ready to serve! Enjoy~
