The Geeks have come up with a tasty and adorable way to celebrate the release of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, BB-8 Bruschetta!
Ingredients
- 1 French Style Baguette (the rounder the better)
- ½ cup Whipped Cream Cheese
- Mini Orange Bell Peppers (the amount will depend on their size, but 4-5 should do)
- Sliced Black Olives (amount will vary but each Bruschetta will use about 2 olive slices)
- Everything Bagel Seasoning
Instructions
- Vertically slice your baguette into ¾ inch slices.
- Slice mini bell peppers into thin rings for BB-8’s orange rings.
- Cut a few of the rings into halves or thirds for the half rings and for the top of BB-8’s head.
- Slice half of the olives in half both widthwise and lengthwise for the black link on the bottom of BB-8’s head.
- To construct the base, cut one slice of baguette in half and using a toothpick connect the half to a full slice.
- Repeat until you’ve created the desired amount of bruschetta.
- Top each BB-8 with a thin layer of cream cheese.
- For the body: place a full mini bell pepper ring in the center and a partial ring on both sides near the top. Fill the rings with a pinch of everything bagel seasoning.
- For the head: Place a sliver of mini bell pepper at the top. Next line the bottom of his head with the sliced black olives. Place a whole olive slice for the eye (we used the end pieces so the cream cheese doesn’t show).
- Serve.
