Ingredients

1 baguette, thinly sliced
2 tbsp. olive oil
8 oz. roast beef, thinly sliced
1 cup horseradish cream sauce
Fresh arugula leaves
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Baguette Slices

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet in a single layer. Brush each slice with olive oil to ensure they become golden and crispy.

Step 2: Toast the Baguette

Bake the baguette slices for 10-12 minutes, or until they are golden brown and crisp. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly.

Step 3: Prepare the Roast Beef

While the baguette slices are toasting, thinly slice the roast beef if it’s not already pre-sliced. Make sure the slices are bite-sized to fit neatly on the baguette.

Step 4: Assemble the Canapés

Spread a small amount of horseradish cream sauce on each toasted baguette slice. Top with a slice of roast beef and a few arugula leaves. The peppery flavor of the arugula complements the richness of the roast beef perfectly.

Step 5: Season and Serve

Season each canapé with a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Arrange the canapés on a beautiful serving platter for an elegant presentation.

Step 6: Enjoy!

Serve the roast beef canapés immediately to ensure they remain crisp and fresh. These delightful bites are perfect for mingling and enjoying with friends while you watch the latest Bridgerton episodes or discuss your favorite moments from the books.
