Special Notes

These bite-sized appetizers are perfect for parties and gatherings. The combination of ground meats, creamy soup, and tangy sauces creates a rich, flavorful filling that's wrapped in buttery bread. The key is to roll the bread tightly so the filling doesn't spill out during baking. They're a great make-ahead appetizer that can be frozen and reheated.
