Ingredients:
  • 1 baguette (14 oz), cut into 40 (1/4-inch) slices
  • Nonstick cooking spray
  • 2 packages (3 oz each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese (from a 5-oz container)
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise or salad dressing
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 medium cucumber, finely chopped
  • 1 small ripe tomato, finely chopped
  • 1/2 medium red or yellow bell pepper, cut into matchsticks
  • Fresh flat-leaf (Italian) parsley leaves, if desired
Instructions:
  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Arrange bread slices on a baking sheet, lightly coat with non-stick cooking spray, and bake for 6 to 9 minutes until crisp. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely.
  • Combine cream cheese, blue cheese, mayonnaise, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Mix with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and well combined.
  • Combine the cucumber, tomato, and bell pepper in a small bowl, gently mixing them together.
  • Spread a generous teaspoon of the delectable cheese mixture over each slice of fresh baguette, then add a generous portion of the refreshing cucumber and tomato mix. Finish by elegantly garnishing with fresh parsley.
