It can often be hard to find grain free, dairy free, healthy options when we aren’t eating at home or get invited to a dinner event. These bacon chicken bites are my solution.
Whenever we go to a friend’s house or potluck, I bring a plate of these to share. We always have something we can eat, and I haven’t found many people who don’t like these savory appetizers.
The other best part? These cook in half an hour and only use one dish! They are protein packed and filling and my kids love them. I can put these in the oven, go get ready, and they are ready to go when it is time to leave.
If you are looking for an easy dish to bring to parties and potlucks, I suggest these:
