Expert Tips

“Provençal” refers to ingredients—such as tomatoes—that are common to the cuisine of Provence, a region in southeastern France.

Unwaxed, hydroponically grown English cucumbers have a sweet, delicate flavor and few or no seeds, so they’re a great choice for this appetizer.

Be careful. What ever paste I used was very strong flavored and I used feta instead of goat cheese so the whole thing was way too strong

I brought this to movie night and my friends couldn't stop talking about them. I used "Tuscany" brand tomato spread. It's a bit spicy which adds a little extra zip to the appetizers. I WILL be making this again. Oh, and it's quick and easy too!
