Appetizers

This spread is a Middle Eastern dish of roasted and charred eggplant that's pureed with garlic, lemon juice, tahini, olive oil, salt and pepper. It has a creamy, smoky flavour of rich eggplant. 

Something this good needs to be shared with a group of people like as an appetizer at a cocktail or dinner party with veggies and pita bread.

Cucumber Tapa
This is one of my favorites for when I'm looking for an appetizer that tastes great, looks good and is easy to make.

Guacamole and Tortilla Chips
A fantastic appy for dinner parties or parties of any kind!

White or brown button mushrooms filled with goat cheese and topped with a breadcrumb mixture of toasted pine nuts, garlic, sun dried tomatoes, parsley and day-old bread.



This is one of my favorite recipes, so delicious you'll want to double it. Simple ingredients and good olive oil, tasty and delicious.

Fresh salad rolls with carrots, cucumber, red pepper, sprouts, avocado or mango, as well as rice noodles and rice paper.
