Crostini, originally from Tuscany, are small, thin slices of toasted bread with a variety of chopped toppings. This version is sure to be a hit at your next gathering. The rich roasted vegetables become super tender, allowing them to easily adhere to the toasted bread. Ready in about 45 minutes the vegetables and toasts can be made ahead separately to lessen work the day of your event. Refrigerate the vegetables for up to 2 days and bring them to room temperature before serving. Keep the toasts in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Top your toasts for an easily passed appetizer or arrange the toasted bread around bowl of the roasted vegetable mixture for guests to top themselves.
