Ladies, I would imagine every one of you will be attending some type of Halloween, fall-festive event within the next few weeks. If it’s potluck, we have the dish for you! Even if it’s not, these “bat bites” are a fun and festive treat for any event, and it’s always nice to bring something!
Ingredients
• Cheese ball, any flavor
• A cup of walnuts or almonds, chopped finely
• Tortilla chips
• Sliced olives
Directions
• Take spoonfulls of the cheese ball and roll each into 1-2 inch mini cheese balls.
• Roll each in the chopped nuts, completely covering the cheese.
• Take two sliced olives and place next to each other on the cheese for the eyes.
• Stick two triangular (or any shape!) tortilla chips behind each of the olives for the wings.
There you go! Stick them on a plate and enjoy! This is a nice snack because it has everything with it; you don’t need to dish your chips, veggies and dip because they’re all in one! Depending on how small your mini cheese balls are, this recipe can yield 16-20 bat bites. Each costs less than a dollar to make. Not bad!
