I submitted this recipe to a local station (Ksbw-8 Garlic recipe contest) and was one of the winners

After making it on Tv the head chefs from the California Culinary Academy told me I left one thing out and I have to agree - hot peppers - so follow the recipe and add jalapenos, habs, . . .(your choice) and enjoy!

Mix first 6 ingredients in a bowl.

Mound 1 tablespoon Olive-Garlic mixture on each bread slice and spread it around. Arrange on baking sheet, broil until topping is heated through and begins to brown, about 2 minutes [can toast the bread, then add the spread & broil. Or bake @ 375-F about 5-10 minutes or until bread is toasted and the top is lightly golden. Serve hot.
