  • Reviews

  • “This was awesome and will become a permanent recipe for appetizers when entertaining!I left out the cayenne and tabasco sauce and instead used 1/2 tsp of crushed red pepper flakes.”

  • “Delicious, BB!! I didn’t add the Cayenne, because I thought the Tabasco heat would intensify with marinating. Didn’t- happen-so will add more next time.Made for Herb of the Month-Bay in the French Forum and for Light Suppers in Cooking Photos.”

  • “A friend of mine made these for a party at her home. I just about devoured the whole bowl myself! I will be making these for my Christmas Eve munchie table, if they make it to the table! Try just one … I bet you can’t stop at just one!”
