- Preheat your broiler to high.
- In a medium bowl, combine 2 cups packed fresh basil leaves, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1/4 cup mayonnaise. Mix well to form a pesto.
- Arrange 8 slices of your favorite bread (baguette or ciabatta work well) in a single layer on a nonstick baking sheet.
- Broil for 30-40 seconds, watching carefully, until the bread is lightly toasted on one side.
