 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1      cup           prepared macaroni salad
    1/2  cup           garlic-flavored croutons
 30      slices        American cheese

Special equipment: Pie fluter (optional); cellophane-tipped toothpicks.

Combine macaroni salad and croutons.

Separate the cheese slices.  Flute the edges with the pie fluter at this
time if you wish to do so.

Place approximately 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons of macaroni-crouton filling on each
slice, being careful to allow just enough so that the cheese can be easily
folded.  Shape the filling into a line the length of the cheese.  Roll the
cheese into a cone shape and fasten with a cellophane-tipped toothpick.
Refrigerate until serving time.  Makes 30.

Special Hints:  For a fancy touch, try trimming the edges of the cheese with
a pie fluter.  This creates an interesting edge and requires very little
time.  Plus, it's fun!  To prepare the macaroni salad the day before, leave
out the croutons.  To insure a crunchy texture, add the croutons just before
fashioning the cones.
