Tortilla Stacks

Submitted by Knitting Granny

"My son always asks me to make these for our traditional Christmas Day buffet, but they are delicious any time of year. The mix-in ingredients for the different layers can be changed to suit individual tastes. Try making one layer with a small can of chopped black olives mixed in instead of the green pepper, or try minced ham instead of the bacon. Be creative! I've always wanted to try a savory-sweet combination like ham, crushed pineapple and chopped red sweet peppers, but number one son always begs me to stay with the "usual". The one hour "cooking" time is actually refrigerator time."

I had a lot of compliments on these tasty nibbles- made as stated, and my family has requested that I try the pineapple/ham combo next time. Made for PAC, loved by all!
