Made these for a superbowl party. They were inhaled by our guests. I am not good at measuring and just kind of throw things together, so I may have added a bit more seasoning then the recipe called for so they didn't turn out bland at all. We paired them with a spicy marinara which was delicious! We will definately make these again, they were so easy to throw together!

We thought it was bit bland, and would have preferred cheddar cheese.

The first time I made these they were a big hit. I agreed with some of the other reviews that they were slighly bland, so the second time I made them I added more S&P and a few dashes of tabascco - Kicked them right up!! The second time some preferred them over the sausage. I'd give them a whirl, but don't for get to be your own chef and adjust to your personal taste :)
