HAM AND CHEESE MINI BISCUIT BITES

I'm not really good at appetizers, but tomorrow at church it's "Appetizer Sunday" and everyone is supposed to bring an appetizer.  After trying a couple other appetizers and getting frustrated, I got the idea for this one.  I love the way they turned out.  I had to taste one of course.  very easy to put together and not too many ingredients.  Only 1g net carbs per biscuit or muffin, whatever you prefer to call it.  It actually came out of a biscuit recipe adapted, and okay, yes, I realize I spelled biscuit wrong in the picture.  But for some reason I like that spelling better.  Anyway, I'm too tired to go redo the picture, so I hope you'll put up with my spelling error and just try out the recipe.  It's really worth it. After tasting 1 I wanted to eat the whole batch.  That's probably why I don't normally make appetizers.  So little, so innocent, until you eat the whole batch.  But if you are having company or bringing an appetizer to a meal, it works.
