Appetizers, Antipasti and Tapas

"Tapas" is Spanish for small plates.   In recet years whole menus have been built around little plates of food, appetizers and antipasto.  

Many times, when going out to eat, I would find myself ordeing a couple of appetizers and calling it good.......because they really are.

I've made this section with easy dishes that you can do at home for gatherings, parties and your own indulgences.

Make some of these goodies and have some friends over.




I am thankful for the mess to clean after a party because it means I have been surrounded by friends.
