2tablespoonsChopped drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes

Directions

The warm goat cheese toasts make delicious croutons for the salad, but they would also be an easy hors d'oeuvre.

Preheat broiler. Spread each baguette slice with 1 tablespoon goat cheese.

Arrange on baking sheet, cheese side up.

Whisk oil, vinegar and garlic in large bowl to blend. Add greens, sun-dried tomatoes and pine nuts; toss to combine. Season salad to taste with salt and pepper. Divide salad between 2 plates.

Broil crostini just until cheese softens and begins to melt, about 1 minute. Arrange 4 crostini atop each salad.
