Tartines with Cheese, Peppers, and Chard
A tartine is an open-faced sandwich. This recipe demands a hearty bread (one topped with seeds and intact grains adds a nutrition bonus); it's the best match for the herbed cheese topping.

Excellent! I used this recipe to use up swiss chard I had from another recipe. I used cream cheese on some and a red pepper Boursin cheese on others. My boyfriend devoured them.
Read MoreWow, i've struggled to find a recipe to use all the chard we get from the CSA but this recipe solved that problem! Everyone loved this recipe. It is quick and easy. As someone suggested, I make it ahead to have on hand. Our favorite appetizer! I do cheat and use roasted red peppers from a bottle. I roast some grape tomatoes at the same time I broil the bread and they add one more layer of flavor.

Goat cheese can be a little strong, but it blended well with the other flavors, which helped to balance it out. Definitely will make this again.
Read MoreThese are fantastic! I make everything ahead the day before I need them. I then set the parts on the counter a few hours ahead of party time and let them come to room tempterature. I toast sliced whole wheat baguette and then assemble right at party time. This my new go to appetizer. It's elegant, the cheese is rich, the veg is sweet and the red pepper flakes have a tiny kick. Perfect!
