Need a quick and easy item to bring to your summer get-together, picnic or BBQ? These are quick and easy (...not to mention delicious!) They disappear as soon as they are served, so make a bunch. (Of course, omit the alcohol for children and be sure to have the adult version out of reach or clearly marked!)
