Default Clams Cassino Appetizer

These aren't my own creation gosh darnnit. Wish they were, but found this lovely appetizer recipe at the url listed below. Just swap out the breadcrumbs with your favorite LC bread or use your favorite LC Bake mix to make LC biscuits to use for crumbs. I'm sure you'll figure it out.

Don't they look wonderful? I'm gonna make some for the holidays.

We've lightened up these traditional appetizers for a quick and tasty
seafood treat. Great for special holidays or any day of the week

1/2 cup(s) water
18 littleneck clams (scrubbed)

1 small green bell pepper (minced)
2 ounce(s) Canadian bacon (finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
2 teaspoon(s) white-wine vinegar
3/4 cup(s) fresh breadcrumbs (replace with LC Breadcrumbs or use your favorite LC bake mix to make crumbs from LC biscuits)
1/2 cup(s) grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoon(s) chopped fresh chives
2 teaspoon(s) minced fresh oregano (or 1 teaspoon dried)
1/2 teaspoon(s) smoked or regular paprika

Remove clam meat from shells (reserving the shells), chop and stir into the
breadcrumb mixture. Pull clamshells apart and spoon the breadcrumb mixture into
the half shells, packing lightly and mounding slightly (you may have a few shells left
over). Place the clams on a large baking sheet. Bake until well browned, about 20
minutes.
