‘Steak’ Crostini
Visit your grocer’s deli for rare London broil sliced thin to make these delicious open-faced appetizers. All the beefy flavor, but easier on the wallet.

3 tablespoons pepper jelly, melted
-
½ small red onion, very thinly sliced

Blue cheese crumbles

Directions
-
Spread 1 side of bread pieces with butter. Toast on each side, using the high heat of a cast iron skillet, grill or broiler.

Spread a dollop of the cheese onto toast pieces. Scatter with sprouts, then a piece of the beef. Brush with pepper jelly. Scatter slivers of onion over toasts. Garnish with blue cheese crumbles, poppy seeds and a dusting of freshly ground black pepper.
