My husband is diabetic so I always take an appetizer he knows he can eat when we get together with family and friends. This is one of his favorites. I cut the amount of hot sauce in half and use left-over roasted chicken.

I made these at a Christmas Tree decorating party and everyone thought they were wonderful. They are very easy and quick to make.
