Like it or not Fall is fast approaching.....I know that it is still hot outside. I know that the leaves have not yet started to turn, let alone fall. But....the kids are heading back to school. And Football Season is upon us.
To celebrate the football season, Colleen of The Redhead Baker has asked us to come up with som easy but delicious tailgate or party food. Now I have to confess that I am not much of a football fan but I am a tailgate and party fan so I was happy to partake in this fun event.
I brought along these tasty little morsels of goodness that you can just pop in your mouth and enjoy a BLT without the toast. They are easy to make and travel well, making them the perfect dish to bring with you to your next game day gathering.
Yield: 6 servings
