Cheesy Shrimp Canapés
Makes 20
10 slices white bread
2 Tbsp butter
½ tsp thyme leaves
6 oz cooked shrimp, cleaned and chopped
½ cup shredded Swiss cheese
1/3 cup mayonnaise
½ cup fresh bread crumbs
¼ tsp salt, or to taste
Dill weed
Preheat oven to 400º F. Using a 2” round fluted pastry cutter, cut 2 circles from each bread slice. Reserve scraps for crumbs. In small saucepan, melt butter and add thyme. Brush bread circles with this mixture. Place on a lined cookie sheet and bake 10 minutes, until golden. Meanwhile, combine shrimp with cheese, mayonnaise, bread crumbs and salt. When circles are cool, put a rounded Tablespoon of shrimp mixture on each. Sprinkle with a pinch of dill and place under broiler for about 3 minutes.
