#ad Pecan Toadstool Toast! A little whimsical bite perfect for any occasion! eatpecans 
Pecans add a sweet, smooth, delicious flavor to a traditional Caprese style snack. 
Sliced French loaf - toasted
1-2 cups of your favorite creamy cheese - I used whipped goat cheese 
5 (+/-) Roma tomatoes
1-2 cups pecan halves
Balsamic glaze (to taste)
Pecan Pesto (to taste) *recipe below
Start by cutting your tomatoes into round slices. Cut each round in half to make the mushroom cap shape. Make sure you have one tomato cap for each piece of bread. Set aside. 
Place a thick layer of whipped goat cheese on your toasted French bread. Top with tomato as the mushroom cap and a pecan half as the stem. Add a small amount of balsamic glaze at the bottom of the pecan as well as some pecan pesto. Place a small basil leaf at the base of each pecan. Garnish the tomato cap with white sesame seeds. Enjoy! 
¾ cup pecans 
5 (+/-) small garlic cloves
¼  teaspoon sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
2 ½  cups basil leaves
⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
⅓ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
fresh lemon juice - to taste (optional)
In a food processor, combine the pecans, garlic, salt, and pepper and pulse until well chopped.
Add the basil and pulse until combined.
With the food processor running, drizzle in the olive oil and pulse until combined. Add the Parmesan cheese and pulse until just combined. Add in lemon juice for a brighter flavor profile.
