Sometimes the best discoveries in the kitchen come when you least expect them. I was recently rushed getting ready for a social event where I was supposed to bring an appetizer. Because I was getting ready to leave town the next day, my refrigerator was nearly empty, except for a few leftovers. A little of this, a little of that, bake in the oven, and voila! These are yummy and make a nice addition to your party appetizer repertoire, and they are even gluten free.
