Mixed Beans Puffs

Colours rule for these puffs
Heeheheh... I'm so on a roll with these puffy things... Had a couple tins of assortment of beans that'll be just right with these puffs. Let me see... I got Kidney Beans and Pinto Beans. With an additional mix of potatoes and other ingredients. A filling made. Got to make these real quick coz I've made the fillings a day beforehand. It was awefully simple and resulted into delicious pieces of snacks.
Tonight we had no 'real' dinner. Apart from the puffs, I baked some leftover vege popiahs. "B" took out the last batch of the Double Pistachio Turkish Delights and a bag of Jack & Jill potato chips. Had a can of pineapple juice each. Emersing ourselves with our respective reading materials, me with Reader's Digest and "B" with Today paper, we munched ourselves away... Once in a while, we broke away from reading and checked out what Totally Spies from Disney Channel were up to...
