Inside each of these easy-to-eat bites is a bit of a surprise. From falafel balls stuffed with feta and tomato to portobello mushrooms overflowing with cheese, these recipes really stuff all the flavor they can into one bite.

Using falafel mix keeps the shopping list for these cheesy stuffed appetizers short. The unexpected addition of Parmesan maximizes flavor. You can find tahini, a paste made from sesame seeds, at specialty food stores and many supermarkets.  

It's hard to hold back with these spicy little poppers around. Store-bought biscuit dough makes easy little appetizers, stuffed with cheesy jalapeno filling.  

Reimagine and supersize stuffed mushrooms with this flavor-packed portobello version. Sun-dried tomatoes (we especially love the ones packed in oil) add perfect pizza flavor. And, like the mushrooms, they're high in umami, giving this vegetarian dish a satisfying meaty savoriness.
