Tomato Risotto Bites

Fletcher's first birthday party is on Saturday and I am determined to have food that he can eat. Yes I know he is just one guest,but come on... it's HIS party!! As the birthday boy he should be able to eat whatever is on the table.

And so, tonight I began baking!

First on the list... my Berry Yummy Mini Cakes which are super yummy and now safely stored in the freezer away from the hungry hands of my husband!

Next came a new idea of mine.... Tomato Risotto Bites.Oh my, I am in love!! Risotto Bites are gluten, wheat, dairy, soy and nut free - AND they taste good, are simple to make and even easier to serve and eat!
