(by Shirley McNevich)
1 loaf French bread
1/3 cup olive oil
1 garlic clove (minced)
2 - 4oz. cans mini salad shrimp (drained)
1/4 tsp. basil
1 - 8oz. Philadelphia cream cheese (softened)
Cut the bread into 1" thick slices, then cut each slice in half
horizontally. Place the slices (cut sides up) on to ungreased cookie
sheets. In a bowl add olive oil and minced garlic--stir. Brush each
bread slice with the olive oil mixture. Bake at 400 degrees for 5-10
minutes or until lightly browned (be careful the bottoms don't burn). In
a bowl add drained shrimp and basil--toss. Remove bread from oven.
Spread cream cheese on top of each bread slice. Put a small spoonful
of the shrimp mixture on top of the cream cheese on each bread slice.
