Oh yea, these are good! DH and I have ordered these as an appetizer in our favorite Italian restaurant, and he commented that we could have just ordered 2 appetizers and salads and made dinner out of them, so tonight that's just what I did. We had these with a salad, and I am stuffed! Served them with roasted garlic marinara on the side for dipping, or in the case of DH, pouring on. Thanks for the recipe, Sue- we'll be using this a lot! :o)

These are excellent! I have made this recipe numerous times in the past and they disappear in the blink of an eye. Thanks for posting!

Oh my, these are SO addictive. I baked mine - sprayed aluminum foil with olive oil cooking spray and backing for about 10 minutes in a preheated 425F oven. (I was too lazy to pull out the deep fryer.) I also reheated these the next day, cooking the same way but for maybe 7-8 minutes and again, they were still very good. Thanks again!

this sounds wonderful! I will try this very soon. I have tried something similar at one of our great New Orleans restaurants. They serve "fried" bowtie pasta with spinach and artichoke dip. It's awesome!
