No party is complete without some appetizing appetizers!I so look forward to appetizers in any party and for the hubby, they’re the most important part of a meal!I made these some time ago for our friends and they turned out really good. Easy to use and inexpensive,Puff Pastry Sheets are a freezer staple in my house.Not being much of a baker, it comes in really handy for me for creating dishes like these that look professional! The buttery layers of the puff pastry gives a richness to anything you add into it and transforms it into something special!
My Leek and Mushroom tarts make for an easy and quick appetizer for any party or potluck.The mushrooms are golden and meaty.The leeks give a sweet subtle flavor and for me they’re a classic combination.These also look great on any table and I top these with some Crumbled Feta for a delicious finish!
