Foodbuzz- Pepperidge Farm tastemaker challenge. Recipe
I made these little tangy, spicy bites of goodness on thanksgiving
thanks mostly to the puff pastry that I recieved from Foodbuzz for the tastemaker’s challenge program. The combination of the mango salsa and bits of goat cheese were pure magic when bitten with light and flaky puff pastry.
