Are these able to be frozen? Looking to start a stockpile of finger food for my 40th in June. Thanks
Sure 🙂
Tasty! I made these today for the first time and they’re really tasty and quite simple to make.
I never used 2 x jalapeño, instead I used 5 slices pickled jalapeño.
I think it pays to be prepared with this recipe though. Pre-cook the cauliflower and it’ll be heaps quicker.
Next time I’ll add more cheese and perhaps Skinnymixers ranch dressing!
These are a huge favourite in our house! I love them!
These turned out great. The first couple crashed and burned and did not stay in shape but that’s ok – more for the chief taster!
The hotter the pan got I worked out that you don’t need any oil to cook them and they held their shape for me! Yay, winning! Brekkie tomorrow sorted. Thank you!
Can you bake these lovelies?
These were just delicious! Another great recipe Kerry, I served with grated cheese, sour cream and a side salad.
