Description

For a change from the usual toasted tomato appetizer, try these baked bites. If you like, slice the baguette at an angle instead of making a straight cut. —Leondre Hermann, Stuart, Florida

Made these New Years Eve, and followed the advice of a previous review and used Hormel Bacon Bits... I did not brown the bread first, just put the mixture on the slice bread, and that worked very well. I used a mix of Colby, Monterey Jack and Swiss Cheese, and used 1/2 cup mayo and 1/2 cup sour cream, and included a few drops of almond flavoring. Perfecto!How to toast almond slices: place sliced almonds in a single layer on a cookie sheet, bake @350 tor about 8 to 10 minutes until the desired color, allow to cool completely before using.

These are great right out of the oven. I have made them twice as written, but might reduce the mayo in the future. I can definitely detect the mayo flavor and would prefer a cheesier taste. Can easily swap out the cheese, maybe try a light Swiss or a blend of Monterey Jack and Swiss? This recipe goes into my favorite folder for a change of pace.

Big hit at two different parties!

I dont know if anyone else has this problem, but I have the hardest time moving from recipe to recipe and maneuvering my recipe box. I cant seem to find an easy way except to leave the site and return. So very irritating. Any advice.

I would like an easy way to get to my recipe box if there is a way please let me know. I made the snicker doodles yesterday love them!

Love this recipe!!! Found it while going through my grandmother's Taste of Home magazine a few years ago. It's a huge hit at holiday parties...you must make a lot because they go quickly!! I drizzle a tiny bit of olive oil on each crostini before putting them into the oven, gives it an added tasty little crunch.

My son just made these for his school project and it turned out great! sad to see it all go to class, except a few for us, that is ;-). We will be making this for our guess for our next get together.

Haven't made yet, if they are as great soundng as others' reviews, they'd be mighty good!

I've been making these for years, after seeing the recipe in the first Taste of Home cookbook I bought. Love, love, love these and make them often

Oh man! These are so good! Everyone at my Christmas buffet loved these.
