- Ingredients:
- 9
- Yields:
-
10 sandwiches
ingredients
- 1 loaf white bread (large, firm)
- 2 tablespoons butter (optional) or 2 tablespoons margarine (optional)
- 16 ounces mushrooms (sliced or chopped)
- 1⁄2 cup onion (chopped)
- 1 small garlic clove (crushed)
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- salt
- pepper
- 1⁄2 cup butter (or butter flavored spray PAM)
directions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- If desired, remove crusts from bread, trimming to make the slices into squares.
- Saute mushroom, onions, and garlic until tender and brown. If desired, saute in 2 T butter.
- Add cream cheese, salt and pepper to taste, stirring until mixture is smooth. You can also add any additional ingredients like dried beef or ham at this point.
- Lightly spray or butter one side of each slice of bread. Place 1/2 the butter bread face down on cookie sheet. Spread about 2 T of filling on unbuttered side of bread. Top with second slice of bread butter side up.
- Cut each one into the size you want for serving (whole, half, or quarters). It is better to do this before they get crispy as it is less messy and easier.
- Bake in preheated oven for about 8 minutes. Turn over and bake an additional 5 minutes.
- These can be wrapped and frozen for up to 4 months.

I am an engineer with an artsy side. So I love high tech stuff--including eCookbooks. I have been cooking since I was a child and love to cook. I used to write a quarterly cooking column in the local paper; now I write 2 page feature article every quarter and include photos. I travel the world so my tastes are eclectic.
