Meet the Cook: I always try to have a supply of these on hand in the freezer. If guests drop in, I just pull out and reheat some. You can serve them as a snack, for brunch or along with a lighter lunch. My husband and I have three married daughters, four grandsons and another grandchild on the way. -Linda Thompson, Southampton, Ontario

The mayo base was too much - very greasy. Next time, I'll try half mayo and half sour cream.

My guest loved it. I thought it needed a bit of tweeking. So I made this with extra sharp cheese (kraft) whick I grated on a box grater. The extra sharp chese is MUCH betterr. Next time I will try a better brand of extra sharp cheese. I also think that adding 1/2 to 3/4 more worcestershire adds a depth of flavor. I used 1/2 of a medium onion as other suggested. For the bacon, I used center cut bacon, which yeilds more meat and lesds fat. It worked well. LOVE the make ahead convience of this. .

A very tasty and easy appetizer. I used 6 - 8 tbsp Oscar Mayer real bacon bits & a small onion. Will definitely make again!

I made these appetizers for a special family gathering and they went very quickly. I made extra to put in the freezer to use when we have guests over and they have always been a huge hit.

to make even easier....I used handful or two of REAL bacon bits from Sams club (not the hard bacon bits)! why fry bacon if you don't have too - also small onion

These were a hit at a small holiday get together, and or guest could not get enough of them! The only problem I encountered was that the bread I bought (a french baguette from Trader Joe's) fell apart too easily, but with a better bread they would be perfect.
