Mushroom Toast Squares
A great appetizer, or as a side to soup!
- 1 loaf thinly sliced good quality bread
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
- 3/4 cup mushrooms, chopped
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 pkg cream cheese (8 oz), softened
- 1/2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 tsp garlic salt
- 1/4 tsp oregano
- Softened butter
- Cayenne pepper or paprika
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Butter a cookie sheet. Trim crust from bread. Discard crust or save for another purpose.
In a skillet, over medium high heat, combine mushrooms and onion in butter and saute until soft. Combine remaining ingredients, except cayenne, and cook for one minute. Spread on half of bread slices. Top with remaining slices, sandwich style. Butter top of bread. Cut into quarters diagonally to make triangles. Sprinkle lightly with cayenne pepper or paprika. Bake in preheated oven for 10 minutes. Makes lots. Enjoy!
Note: I usually make an entire recipe, freeze sandwiches uncut, individually and store in original bag from bread. Then I just take out what I will be needing, cut into quarters and bake. Easy and instant appetizers.
