Asparagus Crostini

I love asparagus and i love smoked salmon, so this is one of my favorite little appetizer bites!!

Heat oven to 350 degrees.

Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.

With a pastry brush , lightly brush the slices of baguette with olive oil.

Place pieces on pan , season with salt and pepper.

Bake in oven for about 5-7 minutes until golden.

Blanch trimmed asparagus in rapidly boiling salted water for about 3 minutes.

Transfer immediately to an ice bath.

Remove once cooled to dry , then cut into 1-inch pieces.

To assemble: place a small piece of salmon on top of the crostini , then two pieces of asparagus , and top with one small slice of brie.

Garnish with freshly cracked pepper.
