Italian Crostini

Posted by Kimberly:

One of my favorite things to eat during the holidays is finger foods. It takes me back to past Christmas Eves when I was in junior high and high school. It was always our tradition after my sister and her husband were married to have finger foods on Christmas Eve night, open presents, and play games. What good times and great memories...... This recipe is a delicious finger food that is perfect for holiday parties or any gathering.

Italian Crostini

1 lb. sausage
1 tbsp. Italian seasoning
1/2 stick butter
2 tbsp. flour
1 cup Parmesan cheese
milk or half & half
baguettes

Brown sausage and seasoning together. In a separate pan, make a white sauce using butter and flour. Add enough milk or half & half to make a thin gravy consistency. Pour sausage into white sauce and add one cup of grated Parmesan cheese. Spoon onto bread slices. Bake at 350 degrees for about 10 minutes or until brown.

The sausage and white sauce mixture can be made ahead of time and kept in the refrigerator until you are ready to bake it on the bread and serve.

Happy Holidays!!!!
