Our family adores broccoli casserole. I wanted to try it as an appetizer, so I used a pecan tassie recipe for the crust. The result? We're talking scrumptious. -Gail Gaiser, Ewing, New Jersey

I tried making these tassies, but they turned out really dry. I think I overcooked them.

These tassies were a bit too bland for my taste. I would add more salt and pepper next time.

I had some leftover mashed potatoes, so I used those instead of the frozen hash browns. It worked great and the tassies were still delicious.
