Cheesy little appetizer rounds get an easy start with Pillsbury® refrigerated crusty French loaf, served with creamy spinach spread.

Ingredients

1 box (9 oz) frozen chopped spinach 4 oz cream cheese (half of 8-oz package), softened 1/2 cup sour cream 2 tablespoons basil pesto 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon white or black pepper 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese 1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic 1 can (11 oz) Pillsbury™ refrigerated crusty French loaf 1/4 cup Crisco® Pure Olive Oil

Instructions

Heat oven to 375 °F. Spray 2 large cookie sheets with Crisco® Original No-Stick Cooking Spray. Cook spinach in microwave as directed on box. Drain spinach; cool 5 minutes. Carefully squeeze spinach with paper towels to drain completely. In food processor, place spinach, cream cheese, sour cream, pesto, vinegar, salt and pepper. Cover; process until well blended. Cover; refrigerate while preparing crostini. In small bowl, mix cheese and garlic; set aside. Place loaf of dough on cutting board. Using sharp serrated knife, cut dough into 1/4-inch slices; place 1/2 inch apart on cookie sheets. Press slices with fingers into 2-inch rounds. Brush rounds with 2 tablespoons of the oil; sprinkle with half of the cheese mixture. Bake 5 minutes. Remove from oven; turn crostini. Brush with remaining 2 tablespoons oil; sprinkle with remaining cheese mixture. Bake 5 to 10 minutes longer or until golden brown and crisp. Remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks; cool 5 minutes. Serve warm with spinach-pesto spread.
