- 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar
- 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 French baguette

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°. Cut a French baguette into 24 1/4 inch slices.

- Meanwhile, add mint leaves, parmesan, white wine vinegar, salt, pepper, and the remaining olive oil to a food processor and blend. Once the leaves have reached a consistency similar to pesto, add the thawed sweet peas to the food processor. Blend until smooth.
