If you need a quick and easy appetizer, give these super tasty Brie-Leek Tartlets a try. All of the ingredients keep well in the fridge so you can just whip the tartlets together at a moment’s notice. You can also fill the tart shells a few hours ahead and store in the refrigerator before baking…the shells will still be crisp after baking.

Recipe can be easily doubled or tripled. Definitely consider that since they fly off the tray in a flash!

Some R&B to go with dat brie? Well, kinda sorta R&B.

Lauded as “London’s R&B-punk sensation”, King Salami & The Cumberland are slamming it on their latest release ‘Back To Wurstville’.
