Made these for a friend's birthday party and everyone loved them. I made one with the blue cheese and walnuts, made a second with feta cheese and black olives (which I preferred, but I already knew I didn't like blue cheese). Simple and impressive--thank you!

This is a very quick and easy appetizer that even my children liked. I like that the filling is placed on the pie crust first and then the pie crust is cut. This made it very easy to roll up. Thanks for a great recipe.
