Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F. Slice the 1 baguette diagonally into 12 slices about 1/2 inch thick and arrange them on a baking sheet.

  2. Step 2

    Brush both sides of the bread slices with 2 tbsp of the olive oil. Toast in the oven for 8-10 minutes, flipping once, until golden and crisp on both sides.

  3. Step 3

    While the bread toasts, halve the 1 cup cherry tomatoes and place them in a bowl with the 2 cups arugula and 0.5 cup walnuts. Crumble in the 4 oz feta cheese.

  4. Step 4

    Drizzle the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil over the tomato mixture, add the 0.25 tsp salt and 0.25 tsp black pepper, and toss gently to combine.

  5. Step 5

    Spoon the arugula-feta mixture generously onto each toasted bread slice. Serve immediately, while the bread is still crisp.

  6. Step 6

    For extra flavor, add a squeeze of lemon juice or a drizzle of balsamic glaze over the top before serving, if you have them.
