Prep Time10 Minutes
Servings4
Cook Time5 Minutes
Ingredients
1 baguette (for smaller babies use a regular bread slice)
1 clove garlic
185ml (3/4 cup) olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 cup + 1/4 pumpkin seeds
2 large handfuls kale leaves
2 large handfuls fresh parsley leaves
15 cherry tomatoes
Handful fresh basil leaves finely chopped
Juice 1/2 lemon
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Directions

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 baguette (for smaller babies use a regular bread slice)
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 185ml (3/4 cup) olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup + 1/4 pumpkin seeds
  • 2 large handfuls kale leaves
  • 2 large handfuls fresh parsley leaves
  • 15 cherry tomatoes
  • Handful fresh basil leaves finely chopped
  • Juice 1/2 lemon
  • 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

 

METHOD

  1. Pre-heat oven to 180ºC.
  2. Thinly slice the baguette, then place onto a baking tray and toast in the oven for 5 minutes.
  3. Remove from the oven, then rub each piece with the garlic clove. A very small amount of garlic will be on the toast.
  4. To make the pesto, add all of the ingredients to a blender and blend until smooth. If it is too thick you can add a little extra olive oil to thin it out.
  5. Finely chop the tomatoes and add to a bowl along with the remaining ingredients. Stir well. 
  6. To assemble the bruchetta, spoon 1 teaspoon of the pesto onto each bread piece, top with the tomato mixture. 

* For smaller babies - cut a slice of bread into soldiers, lightly toast then serve in the same way.
