Nasturtium Canapes

Ingredients

Directions

1. 1

   Mix the cheese with the chives and 3 tablespoons of milk until smooth. If this is too thick add more of the milk.

2. 2

   Using a serrated knife, trim your bread. You can use a baguette and slice thinly, leaving the crust. Or use a hearty wheat, honey wheat or even oatmeal bread and remove the crust then cut into small squares.

3. 3

   Spread the cream cheese over your bread piece, not quite to the edges. At this point you can place on baking sheets and chill for up to 6 hours, or use immediately.

4. 4

   Pick your nasturtium blooms and gently rinse. Place one bloom on each piece of bread, or careful separate the petals and arrange in a design on top of the cream cheese.

5. 5

   You can also add small herb leaves, such as thyme, oregano or chive stems to decorate.

6. 6

   Serve your canapés on a pretty plate or platter lined with a paper doily. These are great for summer tea parties!
