Updated on Nov 10, 2023

Very simple, effortless make-ahead appetizers! Bisquick saves the day and makes its own crust! I have been making these appetizers since 1986. They freeze very well, and you can heat them, place them on a warming tray, and tada! Done. Feel free to change the type of meat and cheese you use! I tend to have a batch of these in the freezer for impromptu gatherings. I have also taken them when traveling a distance. By the time we get to a gathering, they simply have to be warmed up and served. also makes a quick to-go breakfast! Just heat and eat!

Blue Ribbon Recipe

These cocktail quiches are a delicious bite-sized appetizer for your next party or brunch. They're similar to a mini crustless quiche and can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature. Once baked, the quiche is slightly firm but creamy inside (partially thanks to the cottage cheese). We opted to add the chives and crumbled bacon and loved the flavor they added.
