Strawberry, Goats' Cheese and Pistachio Crostini

These Strawberry. Goat's Cheese and Pistachio Crostini, are one of the easiest items you can prepare for any summer occasion. A scrumptious, sweet and savoury, light and refreshing summer appetizer or a snack. These crostinis are loaded with juicy strawberries, creamy and salty goats' cheese and then garnished with lightly toasted pistachio slivers, balsamic, maple syrup and mint leaves. It's a gorgeous summer treat!

Crostini is one of the easiest dishes you can prepare in less than 10 minutes. Simply toast or bake some bread with olive oil and pile up with a mixture of ingredients you fancy. This weekend was quite relaxing for us, plenty of cricket matches were scheduled, so while we were watching women's cricket between India and Pakistan, the match between India Vs West Indies was recording on the box. When you are on a binge-watch, you're going to need some snacks and that too quick snacks which you can make in a commercial break. We got little peckish, so I prepared this super tasty crostini and we really enjoyed it.

Recently I've read in one of the articles that instead of tossing out those tops, eat your strawberries whole as these green leaves of strawberries are very healthy and flavourful. So I didn't cut off the strawberry tops.

Notes:-
Instead of Maple syrup, you can use honey or agave nectar.
If you decide to use strawberry tops ( green leaves) please wash it carefully with plenty of water.
Don't like the taste of Balsamic Vinegar, omit it.
I had half a punnet of Blueberries, so I decide to use it, maybe you can use this recipe for 4th of July celebrations.
