Ingredients

1. 12 bacon slices (cooked and crumbled)
2. 1 stick butter
3. 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
4. 2 tablespoons worcestershire sauce
5. 3 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
6. 1/2 pound Swiss cheese (sliced)
7. 1 French bread loaf (sliced)

Instructions

1. Cook bacon until about 3/4 done, then remove and crumble.
2. While bacon cooks, sautee onion in worcestershire sauce, mustard, and butter.
3. Cut cheese slices so that a piece fits between each French loaf slice.
4. Stuff a piece of cheese between each French bread slice.
5. Crumble the cooked bacon and add to the onion-butter mixture.
6. Stuff the bacon-onion-butter mixture between each French bread slice.
7. Bake at 400 degrees for about 5 minutes.
8. To serve: Allow to slightly cool, pull pieces apart, fold, and eat like a mini-sandwich.

Notes

1. The number of Swiss cheese slices that can be made from the 1/2 pound depends on how thick each slice is made. Thinly sliced cheese can sometimes be reduced to 1/4 pound.
2. If you find the Swiss cheese is too gooey, try smokey provolone. It's totally awesome, too.

And, a great “go-with” for the bread is a bowl of fire-roasted tomato soup. (recipe link)It’s great for slurpin’ and great for dippin’.

At least, that’s what my guys say.

And, as always, thanks so much for stopping by.
