Smoked Salmon And Goat Cheese Toasts

• 8 ounces soft fresh goat cheese
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
• 2 teaspoons of grated lemon peel
• 1/2 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
• 2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
• 30 thin slices French baguettes
• 12 ounces thinly sliced smoked salmon
• thinly peeled lemon peel strips from one lemon, cut into tiny slivers

1. Preheat oven to 350u0b0F Mix first goat cheese, herbs, lemon zest, and black pepper in a small bowl to blend. Set aside. (The cheese mixture can be mixed a couple of days ahead of time.).
2. Brush oil over both sides of bread. Arrange bread in single layer on a large baking sheet. Bake until bread is just crisp, about 5 minutes on each side. (You can prepare the toasts a couple hours in advance.).
3. Spread cheese mixture over toasts. Top with salmon, trimming to fit. Garnish with lemon peel strips. Arrange on platter and serve.
