- 1 loaf Fresh baguette
- 20 pieces Cooked shrimp

- 3 tablespoons Fresh dill
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Slice the baguette into 20 thin rounds, about 1/2-inch thick.
Step 3
Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and lightly brush both sides with olive oil.

Bake in the preheated oven for 5-7 minutes, or until golden brown and crisp. Remove and let cool.

Step 6
Spread a generous layer of the cream cheese mixture onto each toasted baguette slice.
Step 7
Top each canapé with a piece of cooked shrimp, pressing it gently into the cream cheese mixture to help it adhere.

Arrange the canapés on a serving platter and serve immediately, or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
