My aunt used to make something very similar to these at all family bridal showers & baby showers. They were very good. Prep time is an estimate. Depends on how fast with a pastry bag you are. Cook time is chilling time. Ingredients:
4 hardboiled egg, coarsely chopped |
6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled |
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
1 tablespoon fresh parsley |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon white pepper |
4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature |
4 ounces shredded mild cheddar cheese |
4 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese |
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
1 tablespoon chopped red bell pepper |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder |
6 ounces whole stuffed green olives, drained |
3/4 cup slivered almonds |
1/2 cup chopped celery |
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
2 teaspoons chopped onions |
2 loaves unsliced white bread (16 oz. each) |
3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened |
