  1. Wow - we loved these! Spicy, creamy, rich - yum! Served them as is and just loved these easy-to-make treats. Thanks for posting the recipe!
     
  2. Wow, these are excellent! And easy! I made these last weekend for Football Sunday... They disappeared way too quickly. One confession, however: I used spreadable plain cream cheese in place of the boursin, then added in minced garlic and fresh oregano. I will definitely make these again. My husband insists! Thank you Lainey, and congrats for the FB Pool win!
     
  3. Excellent. Couldn't find spreadable cheese with garlic so used a ranch flavored cheese with great results. Needed no sour cream, guac, or salsa. Perfect as is. Thanks Lainey for sharing a good recipe.
     
  4. Made this recipe this weekend when my GF came out to visit and share a little girl time. It was fantastic and so delicious! My friend woke up Sunday morinring and the first things she said was, "I can't wait to get home and make those poppers!" Awesome! I also made the pineapple salsa to go with them and forgot to serve it! Well, we ended up getting a couple of bites of popper with the salsa and that was fantastic too. Plan on reviewing that recipe too. Perfect party food!Jonesy
