We are a few weeks away from Thanksgiving and I thought I’d better share this simple yet delicious recipe. If you are anything like me, you will have been diligently working away on your Thanksgiving menu. Unfortunately, I rarely deviate from my main holiday dishes (I’ve nearly got Thanksgiving Day down to a science) so I’m always on the lookout for interesting appetizers to make the whole menu a bit more interesting. I think this recipe fits the bill – confit garlic with asiago toasted on fresh bread. I’m pretty sure you can’t go wrong with this appetizer- trust me.
