Our Disclaimer (The serious stuff)

By using our free meal planner (and the rest of spoonacular.com) you have to agree that you and only you are responsible for anything that happens to you because of something you have read on this site or have bought/cooked/eaten because of this site. After all, the only person who controls what you put in your mouth is you, right?

Spoonacular is a recipe search engine that sources recipes from across the web. We do our best to find recipes suitable for many diets — whether vegetarian, vegan, gluten free, dairy free, etc. — but we cannot guarantee that a recipe's ingredients are safe for your diet. Always read ingredient lists from the original source (follow the link from the "Instructions" field) in case an ingredient has been incorrectly extracted from the original source or has been labeled incorrectly in any way. Moreover, it is important that you always read the labels on every product you buy to see if the product could cause an allergic reaction or if it conflicts with your personal or religious beliefs. If you are still not sure after reading the label, contact the manufacturer.

We also attempt to estimate the cost and calculate the nutritional information for the recipes found on our site. Again, we cannot guarantee the accuracy of this information. Additionally, our nutrition visualizer that suggests that you limit sodium, sugar, etc., and get enough protein, vitamins, and minerals is not intended as medical advice. Similarly, our health tips are based on articles we have read from various sources across the web, and are not based on any medical training. The team behind spoonacular does not possess any medical qualifications and the information may be found to be incorrect or out of date based on future research. If you need help planning your diet or determining which foods (and recipes) are safe for you, contact a registered dietitian, allergist, or another medical professional.

One portion of this dish contains around 114g of protein, 143g of fat, and a total of 2092 calories. Head to the store and pick up baguette, ½ mixture of muenster and daisy cheese, chorizo, and a few other things to make it today. It works best as a hor d'oeuvre, and is done in about 45 minutes. 1 person were impressed by this recipe. It is brought to you by Foodista. Taking all factors into account, this recipe earns a spoonacular score of 86%, which is tremendous. Similar recipes are Goat Cheese and Chorizo Crostini, Goat Cheese and Chorizo Crostini, and Yuca Chorriada con Chorizo (Cassava with Chorizo and Cheese Sauce).

Sparkling Wine, Chianti, and Verdicchio are my top picks for Crostini. If you're serving a selection of appetizers, you can't go wrong with these. Both are very food friendly and complement a variety of flavors. The Domaine Carneros Brut with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 27 dollars per bottle.

Domaine Carneros Brut

Vintage dated each year, the Domaine Carneros Brut Cuvée represents the best of Carneros pinot noir and chardonnay made into a classic sparkling wine. The appellation is 100% Carneros. The Brut was aged in the bottle for three years before release. It will continue to develop further depth and complexity as it ages. This cuvée has aromas of meadow flowers, pears and citrus peel enhanced with notes of toast, vanilla and spice. The wine is elegantly structured, rich, round and flavorful with the long creamy finish that is the hallmark of Domaine Carneros wines. Lovely served with double or triple cream cheeses, it also matches especially well with oysters, shellfish, fish, poultry, Asian and California cuisine.

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet. Add the chorizo, break it into chunks with a wooden spoon and cook over moderate heat, turning, until cooked through and lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat to allow to cool. (This step can be done and advance and refrigerated overnight.) Grate cheeses and cabbage. Slice baguette into 1/4 slices on a slight diagonal angle. Place on a cooking sheet. (Consider lining with foil for easy clean-up since you will spoon the mixture on to each slice.) Combine the cheese and cabbage with the cooked chorizo. Using a spoon, top each baguette slice with one or two spoonfuls. Heat in the oven for 10 minutes to allow for cheese to melt and bread to get crispy.
