Pure Genius I tell ya!

A fantastic idea from Admin Matt Frassica that I had to immediately whip up. THESE ARE DELICIOUS... Old Bay is a seafood seasoning that is not hot, nor is it salty, but it sure is full of sweet spicy kapow. The horseradish, Worcestershire sauce and tomato paste provide the other base elements of Bloody Mary flavor.

This will be the first dish to empty at your Thanksgiving feast! Yet these are bariatric friendly and will keep you full for hours. Try them!
