CHEESY CHOLE POPOVERS

Finding something cooked & ready in the freezer is like finding money in your pockets!  Suddenly your not dreading having to cook because you have a tasty, spicy FLAVORFUL meal ready to go.  With that being said, pretty much anytime we make Indian shaaks/subjis (aka veggie entrees) we make double and set it aside for later.  Well earlier this week we happened to come across some Chole in our freezer so we decided since we didn't have fresh baturas on hand we would make popovers out of it.  Y'all.  This might be the best decision we made this week.
