Fresh bright and tasty, this recipe is a great pass around at a cocktail party or a perfect starter for a more elegant dinner party. You can double!
This is a great simple lunch. And I have found so many other uses for the beautiful bright green puree. Don't stop here...think of all the Instagram options! You can do this as your guests arrive, but make sure the baguette is pre-made...clearly.
It is a great pass around and I have even made this for a cooking class (way back when I did those!) There was never a complaint...everyone loves these. So what are you waiting for?? Originally in For Food's Sake, which now retails for just $30 on my site! While stocks last. That is a crazy good price. Go get it!

If you use a salty cheese, do not add salt to the puree, if using a creamy cheese like a ricotta, then you may need to adjust seasoning in the puree to your taste. Asiago, taleggio, creamy blue, camembert or brie are all wonderful for this recipe.
