I love the idea of these cheesy pastry bites, but I think I'll add some chopped jalapeños to give them a little kick.

These cheesy pastry bites are a great way to use up leftover tomatoes and corn. They're also a fun and easy appetizer to make with kids.

I thought these were just okay. The filling was a bit bland and the pastry was too dry.

These cheesy pastry bites were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try using a different type of cheese next time.
