These were so easy to make. I served these during cocktail hour before a small gathering and everyone went nuts for them. Loved the little saltiness from the feta and the creaminess of the mozzarella with the crunch of the walnuts. They were a party in my mouth!!! I will definitely make these again.

I recently made this recipe for a "heavy appetizer" happy hour, and it was a hit! My vegetarian friends were very impressed with it, but in general, everyone liked it, and requested I share the recipe. It's easy to put together, and looks amazing. Yum! Would definitely recommend!
