We had our first big house party with seven people. I should have placed all of the platters and dishes in the kitchen so we could sit at the table, but this worked well enough as a buffet. We took our plates over to the sectional and watched some more Helen cooking videos and K-pop. With a vegan as well as a person allergic to shellfish in the mix, I decided to make the theme Mediterranean with some bbq skewers cooked on the charcoal grill by the hubs. It was a labor of love to cut all the fat off of the boneless, skinless chicken thighs to make chicken and onion kabobs, but the end result was worth it.
Chickpea salad with parsley, tomato, red onion and cucumber. Super light and refreshing.
Grapes; Tabbouleh made with quinoa; orange, kalamata olive and red onion salad; pita;
roasted cauliflower with raisins, pine nuts and parsley in a sherry vinaigrette dressing.
Couscous with raisins, toasted almonds and parsley with orange zest.
Baked falafel with tahini sauce.
Chicken and red onion kabobs.
The steak, bell pepper and onion kabobs in a red wine marinade was also super.
