  • Parmesan & Butter: Creates this gorgeous crispy top you'll love.

Perfect Pairings

I love serving these with different dips ranch marinara or garlic aioli are all amazing. Add a fresh salad on the side or serve them with soup for a complete meal. They're always a hit on game day too everyone loves grabbing these off the platter.

Keeping Them Fresh

Keep any leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Want them crispy again? Pop them in the oven at 350°F for about 8 minutes. You can even freeze them before baking just add a few extra minutes to the cooking time when you're ready to make them.

Mix It Up

Don't eat meat? Try using plant-based meat or sautéed mushrooms and onions instead. Love spicy food? Add some chopped jalapeños or red pepper flakes. Feel free to play with different cheeses too mozzarella Monterey Jack or pepper jack are all delicious options.
