Ingredients
Scale
- 1 French baguette, sliced into thin rounds
- 1 cup sharp white cheddar cheese, grated
- 1/2 cup pesto, homemade or store-bought
- Butter, softened, for spreading
- Optional add-ins: tomato slices, bacon bits, caramelized onions
Instructions
- Prep the Baguette: Slice the French baguette into thin rounds, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Assemble: Spread a thin layer of pesto on one slice of baguette, add a generous sprinkle of white cheddar, and top with another baguette slice. If using add-ins, layer them between the pesto and cheese.
- Butter: Lightly butter the outside of each baguette round.
