Crostini

  1. Step
    Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). In a small pot, melt butter with garlic powder and parsley (if using). On a parchment-lined baking sheet, place the pieces of bread.
  2. Step
    Brush each piece with the melted butter mixture and sprinkle both cheeses evenly on top.
  3. Step
    Bake for 4-6 minutes or until the cheese has melted. Serve with the soup.

Why add plain yogurt to savoury dishes? Plain yogurt tempers spices and adds a creamy richness to soups, curries, tacos, or baked potatoes.
