CHILI CON QUESO BITES

Fun Fact: I'm a huge fan of preparing and making meals (especially breakfasts) ahead of time, so that I can simply grab and go!  My mom did this a lot for me when I was in High School.  She had breakfast burritos and breakfast sandwiches pre-made and frozen so that it would take less time to get me out the door.  I always appreciated that, and it really was convenient for me.  So today I did the same thing for S and I....it really is worth it to make and plan ahead of time!

I got this recipe for "chili con queso bites" from a Relief Society thing.  They are AWESOME for grab and go! So yummmyy!

Here's the recipe:
4 eggs
1/2 cup thick/chunky salsa
1/4 cup flour
2 tsp. chili powder
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
1 green onion, chopped (about 2 T.)

Preheat oven to 400. Grease 24 muffin-pan cups.  Set aside.  In medium bowl, mix eggs, salsa, flour and chili powder. Stir in cheese and onion. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of mixture into each cup.  Bake 10 minutes or until golden brown.  Serve warm or at room temp. with sour cream and additional salsa, if desired.  Makes 24 (I only got 17) appetizers.
Tip: Appetizers may be frozen. To reheat, bake frozen appetizers at 350 for 10 minutes or until hot (I even like mine cold).

Eggs first
I used this salsa from Target
