I'm always on the lookout for quick little appetizers to serve to my guests while I'm finishing up in the kitchen. I found this recipe via Tastespotting, and immediately knew it'd be perfect. I adore chèvre cheese, and while I like all sorts of nuts, pistachios are some of my favorites.
I used ready-bought crostini, but you could certainly make your own from day-old baguettes. (Drizzle with oil, and toast in the oven.)
