Ingredients
- 3/4 pound fresh Brussels sprouts, trimmed and thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup olive oil, divided
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 package (4 ounces) crumbled feta cheese
- 1/3 cup whipped cream cheese
- 1 French bread baguette (10-1/2 ounces), cut in 1/2-inch slices
