Mushroom and Herb Crostini

Another great do ahead recipe. 

Wonderful when having a party and you want 

to have things ready before guests arrive.

The mushrooms are marinated and can prepared and 

set in the fridge. 

The bread can be toasted a day ahead and 

put into plastic storage bags.  

As Always

ENJOY!
