Endive Leaves topped with Sun-dried tomatoes and parmesan
Endive leaves topped with Sun-dried tomatoes and Parmesan cheese
This is an easy, versatile, light summery side dish, appetizer, or salad. Not only is it packed with flavor, but it's also loaded with protein and fiber. I used sun-dried tomatoes that are preserved in olive oil but you can use dry sun-dried tomatoes and add a tablespoon of olive oil instead. The recipe takes under 30 minutes to make.
