MINI BEAN AND CHEESE BITES
From: Martha @ simple-nourished-living.com/
Very tasty. Nicely spiced. Excellent as is, or kick ’em up a notch by topping these mini bean and cheese bites off with a little salsa or guacamole.
Mini bean ‘n cheese bites will be a big hit with guests and they also make great after school treats. Get all the flavors of a bean and cheese burrito in a bite-sized snack.
Oh yeah, let’s not forget about Sunday football game time snacks either, where these mini bites will be a welcomed addition.
Prep time: 5 min
Cook time: 8 min
Total time: 13 min
Serves: 5
INGREDIENTS
½ cup fat-free refried beans - we used Rosarita Vegetarian
2 wedges The Laughing Cow Cheese - we used Swiss Garlic & Herb
⅛ teaspoon ground cumin
⅛ teaspoon chili powder
1 (one) 15-piece box Athens mini phyllo dough shells
INSTRUCTIONS:
Preheat oven to 375F degrees.
Add refried beans, cheese, cumin and chili powder to a bowl and stir until well mixed.
Distribute bean mixture evenly among the phyllo cups - about one rounded teaspoon each.
Place filled cups on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper and bake until mixture is hot and shells are golden brown, about 15 minutes.
(We cooked ours in a toaster oven at 375F and they were done in about 8 minutes)
Cool slightly, serve and enjoy.
