Description

A delicious appetizer to serve up for the big game.

Ingredients

  • ½ whole Baguette
  • 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Cumin
  • 1 Tablespoon Chili Powder
  • ⅓ cups Mayonnaise
  • ¼ cups Salsa
  • 1 whole Ancho Chili Pepper, Chopped
  • ½ cups Shredded Pepper Jack Cheese
  • 4 slices Bacon
  • ½ cups Arugula Lettuce
  • 1 whole Tomato, Chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon Cilantro, Chopped

Preparation

Start out by chopping up your baguette into 3/4″ slices.

Brush the olive oil over the top of the pieces and sprinkle them with your cumin and chili powder.

Next up, mix together the mayo, salsa, and the chili pepper. Spread your mixture over the top of your baguette bites, followed by the shredded cheese.

Now, take your cheesed up crostinis and throw them into the oven at 350ºF for about 5 minutes, just long enough to get the cheese good and melted.

While they’re in the oven, grab your bacon and fry it up. Pull out the cooked up pieces, let them cool and drain, and then cut them into thirds.

Now, take your cooked up crostinis and place a piece of bacon on top, then the arugula and finally the chopped tomatoes.

Finish them off by sprinkling a couple leaves of fresh cilantro over the top.
