Ingredients

  • 4 oz crab meat
  • 1 cup chopped ready shrimp
  • 1 large jalapeno
  • 2 Tbsp scallions (or green onion)
  • 6 cherry tomatoes
  • 2 Tbsp dill
  • 1 cup shredded cheese
  • 1/3 cup mayo
  • 4 oz cream cheese, room temp
  • 3 Tbsp Parmesan cheese
  • Dash of salt, pepper and cayenne pepper
  • 1 french bread loaf

Instructions

  • Slice French bread into about 22-24 slices.
  • Chop crab meat, shrimp, jalapeno, scallion, tomatoes, and dill. (Be sure to chop jalapeno into really small pieces.)
  • In a small bowl combine the cream cheese, mayo, Parmesan cheese, shredded cheese, and seasonings. (Add cayenne to taste. I really like food with a kick to it so I add some cayenne pepper to the tops of the canapés as well.
  • Combine all of the ingredients.
  • Spread over the bread slices.
  • Bake in preheated oven to 365°F about 10 minutes. Serve immediately.
