Four of my friends and I decided to put together a Mezze meal all using the same cookbook, Flatbreads and Flavors by Alford and Duguid. We met and chose recipes a couple of days ago and last night they all came with their husbands to our house to eat and eat and eat. It may just have been the best meal I ever had the pleasure of eating. The food was all Middle Eastern which made for healthy eating (maybe we ate a tad too much though) and unusual flavours. We had so much fun that we decided to do it again in a couple of months with Indian food as the theme. (Is it conincidence that I have used the verb eat six times in this post?)

Looks like a scrummy feast to me, wish I was there. I'm baking for a party tonight. Hope it turns out as yummy as yours looks. Happy New Year.
YUM and YUM! Do I see falafel? schwarma? Pitas to dip AND tabouleh!? Oh my, you have blown my diet this morning. I've gained weight just looking at your feast!
Oh my gosh, that meal looks incredible!
Looks absolutely delicious Joyce!!! Yum!
Best wishes to you for 2010!! 8-)
This looks SO good! My husband was thrilled to receive his copy of this book for Christmas! Can't wait for him to start using it!!
That's such a good idea. The food looks colourful and scrumptous. One of my favourites when eating out. Maybe I will try it at home too. Yum!
Happy New Year!
In my family we often have "themed pot-lucks" - it is a fun way to get together and spreads the cooking duties *because we all LOVE to eat! Your feast looks absolutely delish! and I just bet you all had a fun time ooohing and aaahing over every bite! Cheers! Evelyn
