Littler Macs occurred as an after-thought. We made a pasta
dish a few weeks ago, and brought a loaf of French bread.
Some of the French bread was left over, and I didn’t want to waste
it.
So I thought of what I could do with it. As
you get to the end of the loaf, the size of each cut shrinks.
I had enough to cut 7-8 thin, tiny sandwiches.
Why not make some baby mac and cheese
sandwiches?
If you have some extra French bread, I’d
suggest this as a cute appetizer, though I served this to our kids as their main
dish one night. Cut the small pieces very thinly. Heat up the sauce pan
and melt butter in it. Put the tiny bread slices in the pan, then
sprinkle heavily with grated cheddar cheese and cover it with lid. Check
periodically to make sure the bottoms toast without
burning.
Once the cheese melts, slip the pieces
together into sandwiches. For an adult, you
could gulp these in one bit. Kids may take
2-3 bites to finish. They were a hit in our house.
They can be in yours, too. Impress your friends
with this unique finger food, or make the Little
Macs to get your kids thinking they’re eating something
new.
