Mustard-Tarragon Shrimp Toasts

Saw this one in Sunset mag. Here is their accompanying quote: "This is pure retro comfort food, but we've lightened and updated these toasts by baking instead of frying them."
(serves 6)

8 oz. shelled, deveined shrimp, patted dry and minced
2 T. minced shallots
1 T. chopped tarragon, plus sprigs for garnish
1 T. Dijon mustard
1 T. freshly* squeezed lemon juice
1/2 t. kosher salt
1/4 t. freshly* ground pepper
1 large egg white, beaten until frothy
6 slices rustic French or Italian-style bread
About 1/2 cup (4 oz.) cream cheese at room temp.
6 lemon wedges

Preheat oven to broil. Combine 1st 8 ingredients (through egg white) in a bowl, and mix gently. Lay bread slices on a baking sheet and broil about 6" from heat until golden brown, about 3 mins. Turn slices over, spread with cream cheese, and top with shrimp mixture. Broil just until shrimp mixture turns pink and begins to brown, about 6 mins. Serve hot, garnished with tarragon sprigs and lemon wedges.
