ANCHOVY CROSTINI
This recipe was in the Australian Womens Weekly Italian cookbook. This crostini recipe is really good. My friends love them. I usually keep some toast rounds on hand so I can make them up in a hurry. Serve them at a cocktail party or as an appetizer before dinner. I make up a batch of the anchovie mix split it into four place each in small plastic bag & freeze for future use - , I have also frozen the toasts with the anchovie spread on them then just decorate before popping into the oven.. I prefer freezing the spread separately.

CROSTINI WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATO AND ANCHOVY
These little toasts are simple to assemble, especially if you have sun-dried tomatoes and anchovies on hand, and are a great snack to have with drinks. This makes eight crostini, enough for four polite diners to have two each before dinner. Scale up if your crowd is a bit more ravenous.
