24 1/4-inch-thick diagonal slices cut from a long thin loaf of Italian or French bread
For the Tuna Spread:
One 6-ounce can Italian tuna packed in olive oil, not drained
3 flat anchovy fillets
1 garlic clove, minced and mashed to a paste with a pinch salt
1 teaspoon drained capers
4 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 red bell peppers, quick-roasted, peeled and cut into 24 strips
1 tablespoon drained capers
Freshly ground black pepper
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350° F.
On a large baking sheet arrange bread slices in one layer and toast in middle of oven until golden and crisp, about 10 minutes.
Prepare the Tuna Spread:
In a food processor puree spread ingredients until blended well and season with salt and pepper.
