Introduction

This is an awesome appetizer recipe. Everyone loves it! I'm sure you will too!
I like to mix it up ahead of time and put it in the fridge. I also cut up the pita bread before I put the mixture on it. It's prettier for appetizers when it's drop by spoonfuls onto the bread. More tedious, but prettier. This is an awesome appetizer recipe. Everyone loves it! I'm sure you will too!
