Recipe: Antipasto-Stuffed Baguettes with Tapenade

Appetizers and Snacks
ANTIPASTO-STUFFED BAGUETTES WITH TAPENADE

2 small thin baguettes (16 x 2 x 1 inch)
1/4 cup tapenade [purchased, or use recipe below]
4 ounces mild goat cheese
1/4 pound thinly sliced Genoa salami or smoked turkey
2 cups packed arugula leaves, washed well, spun dry
One (7-ounce) jar roasted red peppers, drained, rinsed, patted dry
One (13- to 14-ounce) can whole artichoke hearts, drained, rinsed, patted dry, chopped

Cut top third off each baguette horizontally with serrated knife and remove soft crumb from tops and bottoms, leaving shells about 1/2 inch thick.

Spread about 1 tablespoon tapenade on inside of each bottom shell and top with goat cheese, spreading it evenly.

Fold salami or turkey slices in half and fit them in an even layer over cheese in each shell. Arrange half of arugula on each meat layer and top with a layer of roasted peppers.

Divide artichoke hearts between bottom shells and spread inside of top shells with remaining tapenade. Fit top shells over bottom shells and press baguettes together, reforming loaves.

Wrap each baguette tightly in foil and chill at least 3 hours or overnight.

Cut each baguette diagonally into 12 slices with serrated knife and secure each slice with toothpick.

Makes 24 hors d'oeuvres.
