Spicy Cayenne Toasts With Sun-Dried Tomato Spread - cooking recipe

Ingredients

Sun-Dried Tomato Spread
1 1/2 ounces sun-dried tomatoes (packed in oil preferably or can use dried)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, minced
5 basil leaves, chopped
1 green onion, chopped
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 pinch sugar
4 ounces goat cheese
Cayenne Toasts
1 loaf French baguette, sliced into 1/4 inch slices
1/2 cup olive oil
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic powder

Preparation

Prepare the sun-dried tomatoes if dried. To re-hydrate sun-dried tomatoes, place them in boiling water for 5 minutes, then drain.
Place the tomatoes and remaining ingredients; except goat cheese, in a container and refrigerate for 4 hours. Process in a food processor until smooth.
Prepare cayenne toasts by preheating oven to 200 degrees F. Combine ingredients, other than bread, in food processor, mixing well. Lay bread slices on a cookie sheet. Brush tops lightly with spread. Cook 1 hour until crisp. Cool.
To serve, place sun-dried tomato spread on cayenne toasts and top with a sprinkle of goat cheese.
