#389 – 15 Feb 2010 & Daring Cooks
February 16, 2010 in Uncategorized
Having seen Marisa‘s contributions to the monthly Daring Cooks challenges I decided to become a Daring Cook myself and just completed my first challenge. This month’s host was Michele from Veggie Num Nums, she challenged us to produce a meze spread including home-made pita bread and hummus (recipes listed here) and any other dishes of our choice. Even though making bread is on my list of to-dos this year I was a bit daunted at the though of making bread from scratch. It turned out even better then I could have imagined and I think this is definitely something I’ll be doing again soon.
I left the hummus and pita plain and added some baba ganoush, green olives stuffed with garlic (there where none left for my lunch meze though) and some tabbouleh to the spread.
Today’s Lunch:
- Lunchbox size pitas,
- tabbouleh,
- baba ganoush and
- hummus.
