Recipe Notes
I was preparing to host a girls-night event and realize I have such a melting pot of close female companions. Some will eat anything placed before them, some are non meat eaters and other are full on vegans. Preparing a menu that can encompass this great a variety was challenging, until I decided to serve all finger foods. This allowed more versatility on what was served than a sit down meal and allowed us to just mingle, nibble and enjoy each other. This recipe, adapted from the one found here, pleased the carnivores without offending anyone else and proved to be a big hit.
