these are a quick and easy appetizer... great to serve for games or with an afternoon cocktail.... the recipe and photo are from Alpine Lace Ingredients:
1 tablespoon land o lakes® butter |
1 (6-ounce) package baby portabella mushrooms |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
12 (3/4-inch thick) slices french bread |
1/2 cup purchased refrigerated pesto or homemade |
3 (3/4-ounce) slices alpine lace® deli reduced fat provolone or swiss cheese, cut into fourths |
Directions:
1. Heat broiler. Cut mushrooms into 1/4-inch thick slices. Melt butter in 10-inch skillet until sizzling; add mushrooms and garlic powder. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until tender (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat. Set aside.
2. Spray 1 side of each bread slice with no-stick cooking spray. Place, sprayed-side up, onto ungreased baking sheet. Broil 4 to 6 inches from heat until lightly toasted (about 30 seconds). Remove from broiler.
3. Turn bread slices over. Spread untoasted sides evenly with pesto, spreading to completely cover bread slices. Top evenly with mushrooms and cheese. Continue broiling until cheese is melted (about 30 seconds). Serve immediately.
