Chef's Tips

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the mixture.

These bites can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

To reheat, bake for a few minutes or microwave until warmed through.

Add chopped cilantro or green onions for extra flavor.
