I added a couple of chopped chillies to the recipe - baked them in the oven on roasting trays until they were a bit crispy. They were okay but nothing to shout about. Would make them again but add different things like smoked salmon.

These were wonderful. I made them pretty much just as the recipe says. The only thing that I did a little different is I put the onion, bacon and stems in the food processor so they would be really small pieces. The taste was amazing. Thanks so much for posting and contributing to my Easter dinner.

Sorry, didn't like this one. It was too cream cheesy. I may try this with stuffing mix added.
