Instructions

  • Heat your grill. Spread the Truly Grass Fed Naturally Spreadable Salted Butter onto your bread slices and grill until crisp, only a few minutes per side.
  • Lightly drizzle some olive oil over the zucchini, yellow squash and peach halves and grill over medium high heat until tender. Remove from heat and cut into smaller pieces for the crostini.
  • To assemble: place all of your grilled bread onto a large serving platter or tray. Spread more butter on some of the crostini pieces. Top those with the raw radish slices and sprinkle on Maldon sea salt flakes.
  • For the other bread pieces, top with the Truly Grass Fed cheese slices and then top with the grilled zucchini, yellow squash and peach slices. Top some with the tomatoes. Drizzle with olive oil, balsamic glaze and add fresh basil. Serve and enjoy!
