Flatbread with Pancetta & Asparagus

1-2 cloves of garlic, minced

2 ounces of pancetta, finely diced

6.Sprinkle mozzarella all over.

7.Bake for 9 to 12 minutes until cheese is melted and has begun to bubble.

Shrimp Cocktail & Dip

Tarragon Mustard Sauce

1 cup of mayonnaise

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard

2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh tarragon

Mix all ingredients together.

(Even if you don't have tarragon, the dip is good.)

If made the day ahead, it allows the flavors to blend.  Store in refrigerator in an air tight container.



Fresh Cocktail Sauce

1/4 cup prepared horseradish

1/2 cup ketchup

1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice

Mix all ingredients together.  Can be made one day ahead and stored in the refrigerator in an air tight container.

Beef Crostini with Horseradish Cream

36 slices (1/2 inch thick) baguette bread

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

1 (1 1/2 pound) piece of  london broil

salt

pepper

1.Preheat oven to 375

2.Arrange bread slices on 2 heavy large baking sheets.  3.Drizzle 3 tablespoons olive oil over the bread slices.  

4.Bake until the crostini are golden pail and crisp, about 15 minutes.  

5.Sprinkle beef with salt and pepper.  

6.Grill until medium rare.  

7.Let rest then cut meat into thin slices.  

8.Spread the horseradish cream over the crostini and top with sliced beef.  

Horseradish Cream

1/2 cup reduced fat sour cream

1/3 cup low fat mayonnaise

2 tablespoons minced fresh chives (or scallions)

2 tablespoons prepared horseradish

Combine ingredients.  Cover and chill.

Do-Ahead Tip: The horseradish cream and sliced beef can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately and refrigerate.

Alternative: If desired, the beef tenderloin can be substituted with 1 pound freshly sliced roast beef. Since the roast beef is already cooked and can be used as is, it makes a great time-saving alternative.

Other ideas:

cheese & crackers

cut up veggies (carrots, red bell peppers, brocolli, grape tomatoes) and dip

olives

mini- hotdogs (cocktail franks) with mustard

salsa  & chips

You can also buy a box of frozen mixed hor dourves.  You only have to bake them in the oven.

To Liam o , you will never bring that web site up with that spelling.  www.horsdevours.com!

Answer 3

A really fantastic one which everyone seems to love are bacon wrapped water chestnuts.

I usually cook a whole package of bacon (cut in half first) for one minute in the microwave just to get some of the fat out, then wrap one piece ( 1/2 a strip) of bacon around a whole water chestnut and secure with a toothpick. Continue until either all your bacon or all your chestnuts are gone. Place them into a glass baking dish in a single layer and cover with Diana sauce (original flavour).  Bake at around 350F until they smell so mouth-watering that you don't want to share them, or until the toothpicks are burnt. ( anywhere from 20-40 minutes )  Enjoy!!!
