Introduction
These are a tasty appetizer. I veganized a recipe that people I knew had before with meat and gave them out. They didn't know the difference. I'm willing to bet that neither will you. We usually double the recipe. Another alternative is to use it on a cornbread pizza crust instead of using it in the ball form. These are a tasty appetizer.
