Spring on Toast

....or Bruschetta if you fancy the word!  Who says vegeterian food is boring? this is what gives me the good mood....

300g Shelled Fresh Broad Beans
1 clove garlic
100g Feta Cheese
2 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tbsp chopped parseley
1 tbsp chopped fresh mint
1 tsp honey
Juice of 1/2 lemon

Sliced Crusty Bread
Olive oil to drizzle
Extra Feta Cheese to grate on top
Small Salad leaves to decorate

Place the bread on a large baking tray, drizzle with olive oil and bake in a 180c oven for 10 minutes to crisp a little.

Shell the beans from the second shell, then place in a food processor with garlic, chopped herbs and feta cheese, lemon jucie and honey and process till a grainy paste is formed.  Keep on processing while adding the olive oil.  

Remove Bread from oven, smear generously with green bean paste, place some small salad leaves on top and grate feta cheese all over.
