What can I use instead of mayo, other than sour cream or yogurt? Thank you. -
And what does one do with the 2/3 cup mayo mix that is left sitting in the fridge? Directions never mention it again.

I liked the sound of this, but wasn't interested in making canapes, nor heating the oven. I have a sandwich making machine, so I put this lovely filling between two slices of bread, buttered the outsides and put it into the machine. I made the mayonnaise, used ordinary tomatoes and left the bacon in slices. As a supper, it was very good. -
These were very good, sort of like bruschetta on steroids. For the tomatoes, I used chopped Roma tomatoes instead of cherry tomatoes. Nice to be able to make the topping ahead of time for less last-minute fuss. -
These were really good. I also used garlic powder instead of garlic salt and a red bell pepper. -
Fantastic! I used thin slices of baguette and garlic powder. Flavors were wonderful - they were eaten very quickly! I made half vegetarian-friendly by using veg bacon, and they were also enjoyed that way. Thanks for sharing! -
I prepared these as part of the Canapé Challenge. I was home alone when I made them, but Hubby returned shortly after I snapped the photos. I rewarmed the little devils for him, and he loved them. I had downsized the recipe to just 6 little canapés on cocktail bread, and only got to sample one after Hubby grabbed ahold of them. LOL I did use garlic powder instead of garlic salt and smaller salad tomatoes instead of cherry tomatoes. Very simple and tasty recipe. Thanks for posting.
