These would indeed have been fantastic had the recipe called for some seasoning. Any herb would work, garlic maybe, or even a seasoning blend of some sort. Easy enough to fix. The vegetable flakes weren't a necessary addition as they really didn't contribute anything. The peppers, mushrooms and onions, on the other hand, did, particularly the peppers. They added wonderful flavor as well as color. I didn't use nearly as much of the peppers as the recipe called for, however, just threw on enough till it looked right for me. I did use the paprika, but that wasn't nearly as important as some seasoning would have been. I also used real butter, not the reduced fat spread. While these can be improved upon simply by adding seasoning, they still were delicious and looked very festive.
