Merry Mozzarella Bites
Merry Mozzarella Bites are a delightful appetizer featuring small pieces of mozzarella cheese that are breaded and fried to golden perfection. Often seasoned with Italian herbs like basil or oregano, these bites are crispy on the outside and gooey and cheesy on the inside. They are typically served with a side of marinara sauce for dipping, adding a tangy contrast to the richness of the cheese. These bite-sized treats are a crowd-pleasing snack for parties, holiday gatherings, or casual get-togethers.
