Ingredients

savory Christmas trees-appetizer

8 slices whole wheat sandwich bread
6.35 oz broccoli
1/4 cup spreadable fresh cheese (like Philadelphia)
chopped pistachios

Steps

– Boil the broccoli tops in salted water, then drain and mash them with a fork.
– Remove the crust from the bread slices, and form discs with cookie cutters of various sizes.
– Season the spreadable cheese with a little pepper (optional), then spread small spoonfuls on each disc with a sprinkle of chopped pistachios. Subsequently, add the broccoli. As the discs are filled, stack them on top of each other starting, of course, with the largest.
– Cut a strip of skin from a zucchini and, with a small cutter, cut out stars from it.
– Skewer each tree with a toothpick and finish with the little star.
