Explains Camarillo, California field editor Anita Curtis, If you're looking for a great make-ahead snack, try these. They're nice to have in the freezer for lunch with soup or a salad. My family loves to nibble on them anytime. Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened |
2 jars (5 ounces each) sharp american cheese spread, softened |
1 egg |
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies, drained |
1/4 cup salsa |
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese |
2 loaves (1-1/2 pounds each) thinly sliced sandwich bread, crusts removed |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, cream butter, cheese spread and egg until smooth. Stir in chilies, salsa and cheddar cheese. Spread about 1 tablespoon cheese mixture on each slice of one loaf of bread.
2. Top with remaining bread; spread with more cheese mixture. Cut each sandwich into four squares; place on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 10 to 15 minutes.
3. To freeze, place in a single layer on a baking sheet. Freeze for 1 hour. Remove from the baking sheet and store in an airtight container in the freezer until needed.
4. To bake frozen, place squares on a greased baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 15-20 minutes or until bubbly and browned. Yield: 8 dozen.
