Party Rye Bread Appetizer
This recipe is from my mother-in-law. She actually calls them Old Wood Road Rye Rounds. She named them after the road she once lived on because they were the constant appetizer for her street’s holiday parties.
Don’t let these babies escape the kitchen without a few tucked away for yourself. Trust me…the platter will come back empty.
