Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Spread the cheese mixture over the crostini. Sprinkle with the olives, chives, and more pepper. Arrange the toasts on a platter and serve.
- Do-Ahead Tip: The crostini and cheese mixture can each be prepared 2 days ahead. Store the crostini in an airtight container at room temperature. Cover and refrigerate the cheese mixture. Let the cheese mixture stand at room temperature for 1 hour to soften slightly before spreading over the crostini.

Steps:
- Marinated greens:
- Trim off and discard the tough stems from the greens. Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a wide skillet or saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and red pepper flakes and stir for about 1 minute, until fragrant. Pile in the greens, in batches if necessary, and add a splash of water (you can also cover with a lid to compress them). Add a big pinch of salt and gently cook, stirring with tongs, until wilted and tender. Cooking times will vary depending on type of green, so watch and taste as you go. If cooking a combination of different greens, cook each type separately. Add a splash of water to the pan if it dries out.
- Transfer to a colander to drain and cool until safe to handle. Gently squeeze out excess liquid using your hands or a spatula or wooden spoon, pressing against the side of the colander. Coarsely chop the greens, then transfer them to a medium bowl and toss with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and a few drops of lemon juice. Taste and add more lemon juice, red pepper flakes, or salt as needed. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator; allow to come to room temperature before serving.
- Toasts:
- Preheat the broiler to high.
- Arrange the toasts on a baking sheet and brush both sides with olive oil. Transfer to the broiler and broil for 2 to 4 minutes, until lightly golden on the top. Flip the toasts. Smear each slice with about 2 teaspoons goat cheese, drizzle with a bit of olive oil, and return to the broiler. Broil, watching carefully, for just a minute or two, to heat through and lightly brown. Transfer to a serving platter and divide the greens on top. Zest the lemon over everything, sprinkle with a bit of flaky salt and black pepper, add a drizzle of olive oil, and serve while the toasts are still warm.

Tips:
- For a richer flavor, use aged goat cheese. Goat cheese can be aged for several weeks or even months, and the longer it is aged, the more intense its flavor becomes.
- To make the toasts more crispy, use a sturdy bread. Ciabatta, baguette, and sourdough are all good choices.
- If you don't have a toaster oven, you can toast the bread in a regular oven. Just preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and toast the bread for 5-7 minutes, or until it is golden brown.
- To make the toasts more flavorful, top them with a variety of toppings. Some good options include honey, balsamic vinegar, sliced tomatoes, roasted peppers, or fresh herbs.
- If you are making the toasts ahead of time, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat them in the toaster oven or oven until they are warmed through.
Conclusion:
Goat cheese toasts are a delicious and versatile appetizer or snack. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a variety of toppings to choose from, you can find a combination that everyone will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy appetizer, give goat cheese toasts a try!
