Chickpea and Octopus Bruschetta
Rich and rustic, this is the one topping Jennifer McIlvaine always has on her menu. It has made converts of even the most octopus-phobic customers and was the hands-down favorite topping among Sunset's staff. Prep and Cook Time: 1 1/2 hours. Notes: Octopus is often available cleaned and frozen from specialty grocery stores, fishmongers, and some Asian markets.
