Having some of these now, as I speak, great recipe for these as the kids are munching on them, thought the lime juice was slightly overpowering, though these have a nice flavor to them, might try these with a little less lime juice, just a personnal preference, other than that great idea, and the kids are loving these. Made for PRMR tag.I have a rating system on my home page too.. will keep this recipe.
