  4. For Mini BLT Bites, spread mayonnaise on pretzel halves. Layer with bacon, lettuce, and cherry tomato. Secure with a toothpick.
  5. Mix equal parts pesto and mayonnaise for the spread on Mini Caprese Sandwich Bites. Layer with mozzarella, cherry tomatoes, and basil. Skewer with toothpicks.
  6. For Mini Grilled Cheese Bites, fill pretzel halves with cheddar cheese, reassemble, bake at 350°F for about 6 minutes until cheese melts.
