Tina Thompson of Orlando, Florida, writes: "Because entertaining is a great joy for me, many of my dishes are party-friendly and easy to prepare. It's not uncommon to find me hosting impromptu gatherings for friends during the workweek so that I can try out new creations. As my recipe box grows, so do my fond memories."

A nice addition to the holiday table. Serve with soup or salad, or even with drinks as an hors d'oeuvre.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 28

Ingredients

1 cup mayonnaise
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 cups freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 5 ounces)
3/4 cup finely crumbled blue cheese (about 3 ounces)
28 1/3-inch-thick diagonal bread slices cut from 2 sourdough baguettes
Olive oil
3/4 cup finely chopped green onions

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine mayonnaise, garlic, ground pepper, and cayenne pepper in medium bowl and whisk to blend. Mix in cheeses; season with salt. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)

    Step 2

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Brush 1 side of each bread slice with oil. Place oiled side down on large rimmed baking sheet. Bake bread slices until almost golden, about 5 minutes. Spread 1 generous tablespoon cheese mixture on each bread slice on sheet. Bake until cheese topping starts to bubble and toasts are golden at edges, about 10 minutes.

  2. Step 3

    Transfer toasts to large platter. Sprinkle with chopped green onions and serve warm.
