Mushroom Bacon Swiss Crostini is packed with delicious flavor and so simple to make! The perfect holiday appetizer recipe – it’s sure to please a crowd!
I have a thing for crostini. I really do. Not only is it so easy to make (we’re talking minutes) and something everyone seems to love, but the possibilities for topping it are endless! Which means more fun for me!
It’s kind of become my go-to quick appetizer, because I always seem to have something for it on hand. I’ve shared several with you already – Butternut Squash Crostini, Balsamic Cherry Crostini, and the 3-Ingredient Crostini Recipes I shared last spring. But of all of them, this Mushroom Bacon Swiss Crostini just might be my favorite. My blogging peers have made some delicious crostini recipes, too. Martha has a recipe for Roasted Tomato and Avocado Crostini and Dara has one for Roasted Tomato and Avocado Crostini.

I LOVE crostini any way you slice it! Sorry for the corny humor, but really, crostini is always a winner with me, and I love how elegant these are. I’m a big fan of mushrooms and bacon, so these wouldn’t last long around me!
