Bake premade dough for as long as instructed. Spoon the chili mac and cheese into the greased mini muffin tins, being careful not to overfill each spot. If you're looking to save a little time, prep the filling for these green chile cheese bites the day before.
Ingredients of Chili Cheese Muffin Bites
- It's of leftover chili.
- It's 1 cup of shredded cheese.
- Prepare of for the bread use either:.

Chili Cheese Muffin Bites step by step
- First, make sure you have a clean muffin pan and spray it down with cooking oil. If using English muffins, divide each one into halves and put one half in each of the muffin trays. For premade pastry dough, divide evenly into the indents, making sure the bottom is completely covered. For homemade bread dough, take a small piece of dough and form it to each indent, let rise for 20 minutes than bake at 400 degrees for 5 minutes..
- Add your chili into each indent over the bread and coat each one with a healthy portion of shredded cheese. Bake premade dough for as long as instructed. Bake English muffin version at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes or until cheese has melted and muffins are toasty. Bake homemade bread dough for 15 minutes at 400 degrees. Let cool before serving and enjoy!.
I do add precooked breakfast sausage or minced up ham. I have Hatch chile powder so I add that with my reg grn chile's I grew myself. Pack the mac and cheese into the muffin cups with your fingers really well. If you don't pack the mac and cheese down, they won't hold their shape when you take them out after baking, and you don't want them to fall apart. Place chili in small microwavable bowl.
