Hot Crab Crostini *****
Ready in 30 minutes!
Ingredients:
1 French Baguette, cut into 1/4 inch slices (24 slices)
1 tablespoon olive or vegetable oil
2 cans (6 ounces each or more!) crabmeat, well drained and flaked
1 jar (2 oz.) diced pinientos, well drained
2 ounces shredded Swiss cheese (1/2 cup)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/4 cup chive and onion cream cheese spread (from 8 ounce container)
1/4 teaspoon red pepper sauce
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Place bread slices on large ungreased cookie sheet. Brush tops lightly with oil. Bake 3 to 5 minutes or until crisp and very light brown.
2. Meanwhile, mix remaining ingredients except chives in medium bowl. Spread 1 rounded tablespoonful crabmeat mixture on each bread slice.
3. Bake about 5 minutes or until filling is hot and cheese is melted. Sprinkle with chives.
This has been a family and friends favorite every time we serve it! If the baguette is small, you may need 30 slices. Try manchego or Asiago cheese instead of swiss for a change. Also you can make ahead! Bake the bread and store at room temperature covered. Prepare the mixture, cover and refrigerate. Assemble when are ready to eat! Yummy!!!!!
