This recipe is so simple for a quick appetizer! Brought these as a vegetarian option for our Christmas potluck at work and they were a huge hit!

Excellent and super-easy! I substituted black olive slices for the sweet pepper. I think the possibilities for topping these will only be limited by the cook's imagination. Thanks for sharing this!

It really doesn't get any quicker or simpler than this! Topped off these delicious morsels with drained and chopped oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes instead of the roasted red pepper called for in the recipe (personal preference) and they disappeared in no time flat.
