This appetizer is fit for a king, but you don't need to be one to enjoy it! Food author A.J. Rathbun recently stopped by Tonia's Kitchen to share his Chickpea Crowns. A.J. told Tonia you lightly fry in olive oil one can of chickpeas, along with some onion, and white mushrooms and blend it all together. Next, take a sheet of ready-made puff pastries and cut a 2-1/2 square in each one. Put the blended filling into the squares, and...here comes a pivitol point...pinch the corners of the pastries together so they look like crowns! Bake them all up, and you have a royal party treat.
