Calla Lily Sandwiches
- 1 package Garlic And Boursin Cheese, Soft (can Substitute Other Flavors)
- 3 ounces, weight Package Regular Cream Cheese, Softened To Room Temperature
- 1/2 cups Toasted Walnuts, Chopped Very Fine
- 18 teaspoons Ground Black Pepper
- 18 teaspoons Ground Cayenne Pepper
- 2 loaves Fresh White Bread
- 2 pinches Paprika For Accent
- 2 whole Carrots
- 4 bunches Green Onions, Washed (Use Only The Green Stems)
- In a bowl, mix Boursin cheese, cream cheese, finely-chopped walnuts, and peppers.
- Beat with mixer on medium speed until good and creamy.
- Use a 2 1/2 cookie/biscuit cutter and cut out 30-40 rounds from bread.
- Then with a rolling pin, roll each round so its about 1/8 inch thick.
- For each roll, spread about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture in the middle and to within 1/4 inch of the sides.
- Sprinkle a bit of paprika in the center.
- Roll the bottom of the round over and pinch to seal.
- It will look like a calla lily.
- Wash, peel and cut carrots into very thin matchsticks.
- Cut 2-inch pieces and stick a carrot into the center of each rolled sandwich.
- This looks like the stamen.
- I stick the blade ends of the green onions in the pinched end.
- These not only look pretty, they tasted delicious as well.
- This is a great recipe for a ladies luncheon, or any time you want an elegant appetizer.
