Step by step

1

Heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a non-stick pan. Add green onion, garlic and minced sage and cook for about 2 minutes.

2

Add cooked beans to bowl of food processor. Add sautéed green onions with herbs, water, salt, pepper, balsamic vinegar and ¼ cup (60 mL) of the shredded Romano cheese. Process until bean mixture is very smooth. If desired, thin bean mixture by adding a bit more water, a teaspoon at a time to get the desired texture.

3

Place sliced whole grain baguette on a baking sheet and broil for about 1 minute or until golden on one side and turn for another minute.

4

Spread about 2 Tbsp (30 mL) of bean mixture on each slice, followed by a slice of roast chicken and more of the freshly grated Romano cheese. Broil until hot. Keep an eye on it, being careful not to burn.

5

To serve place the chicken and bean crostini on a serving platter and garnish each with a fresh sage leaf.

Recipe note<p>Canned beans can be used instead of boiling your own however rinse them well first to remove most of the sodium. Two small pieces of crostini provide 7 grams of fibre and almost ⅓ of your daily folate. You can also try different herbs such as basil, chives or thyme.</p>
