Recipe Description
If you’ve ever had fried macaroni and cheese bites, these are sort of similar. I feel like these poppers would be their cousin. The mozzarella cheese leaves the fried poppers gooey and stringy when you bite into them. There are little pockets of sauce that gives some flavor and color. If you would like a little more tangy sauce, do like I did and add a little dish of sauce for dipping. There’s also a whole bag of mini pepperoni tossed into the recipe.
