Toast slices in middle of oven 15 minutes and turn over. Toast an additional 15 minutes, or until golden. Transfer toasts to a rack and rub one side of each toast with cut side of halved garlic. Let cool. Toasts may be made 2 days ahead and kept in a sealable plastic bag at room temperature.

BLUE CHEESE-ONION STEAK BITES
I love the flavor pairing of blue cheese and steak. Adding garlic and onion make it even better. This is a hearty appetizer for parties or a great light lunch. -Jo-Ellen Neil, Arroyo Grande, California
