The Perfect Super Bowl Snack
February 7, 2016
I’ve offered this before, but if you’re looking for something to whip together today, might I suggest this always-popular cheese toast? This poor man’s tarte flambee goes by many names, but around our house it’s known as
Robert’s Cheese Toast
Coarsely grate or chop a quarter pound of extra-sharp white cheddar. Chop a quarter pound of cold uncooked bacon and mix it in with the cheddar. Mince half a small white onion and add that, along with a tablespoon of well drained bottled horseradish. Sprinkle in a quarter teaspoon of salt and a few good grinds of black pepper.
Spread this onto 6 or 7 slices of thin white bread (Pepperidge Farm is perfect), set them on a baking sheet and freeze for 15 minutes.
Cut off the crusts and then cut each toast in quarters. Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 20 minutes or so, until everything has melted into a delicious golden goo.
This is enough for 4 or 5 hungry people (or a dozen abstemious ones).

Very nice! I would like to take this to the grill! We’re doing bacon crackers on the grill in a few hours.
Wonder if anyone’s ever tried regular or smoked Gouda in this.
Sounds good to me. There used to be a food truck at a local art show that served cheese bread and it was wonderful. They had long lines for it at the show. Something rather simple, but just simply yummy.
Please remove me from all emails immediately
I wonder how this would work at room temp – like for a picnic or potluck take-along appy.
