I first made this hors d'oeuvre for a family gathering, my son loved it and asked for the recipe, 
it can be made with different seafood combinations, either way it's a keeper!

2 Baguettes, sliced 1/4-inch thick
  oil for bread slices
1 garlic clove cut in half
8 ounces salad shrimp, coarsely chopped, or use fresh crabmeat or a combination of both
1 large red or green bell pepper, small dice
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
1/4 teaspoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
2 teaspoons Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, finely grated
5 drops Tabasco Sauce (I use more)
Salt and pepper, to taste
parsley for garnish

Lightly brush one side baguette bread slices with oil, rub with garlic clove; place on baking sheet and toast in oven at 350° for 7 minutes.

In a small bowl combine seafood (reserve a few whole pieces for garnish), bell pepper, mayonnaise, parsley, chives, lime juice, mustard, cheese and Tabasco sauce; add salt and pepper.  Spoon mixture on toasted bread slices, garnish with parsley, add the reserved shrimp and serve.

Makes approximately 2 cups
