Hello friends,

So, it was time to hit the drawing board and start looking for Christmas appetizer recipes. I have decided I won’t make too many appetizers this year but a few that are easy to prepare and assemble.  The first appetizer I chose was this Spicy Pepper Dip.  If you’re entertaining this Christmas this appetizer recipe will surely be a hit.

I also needed to be more creative so I took out my cookie cutters.  I always have tortillas in my pantry so I took out all my Christmas star cookie cutters made my Christmas stars tortilla chips and piped on my Spicy Pepper Dip.  After testing a few sizes I finally decided on a size 2 star-shaped cutter.   I used a cookie-cutter chart to figure that one out.  I have a set of 5 pcs star cookie cutters some were small or large, you know what I mean.

Once I was done with the first step I went on to prepare the dip, I placed all the ingredients on my counter and started to prep, the peppers, feta cheese, and garlic we certainly cannot forget the garlic!  To make it spicy I added half of a chili pepper. But before piping the dip onto the tortilla, I popped them into the oven for about 5 minutes until golden brown. The tortilla stars turned out exactly how I wanted them golden brown and crispy.  I set them aside to cool off.

I only made a few of these mini appetizers to see how they would turn out. As far as the dip is concerned I’ve been making this Spicy pepper dip for so many years that I know this one by hard.  But baking the star-shaped tortillas was new for me.  I think my first Christmas Roasted Pepper dip turned out beautifully.

If you’re looking to add a little something special recipe this holiday try out this Christmas Roasted Pepper Dip.

Wishing everyone a wonderful morning/afternoon/evening

Welcome to a small corner of my Greek Heritage. Growing up in New York from Greek parents, was a challenge of its own...but the traditional food, tastes and aromas that my mother cooked always travelled me back to Greece.My mother is a wonderful cook, our house would always have that smell of home cooked food. I remember very clearly that we were only allowed fast food, once a week, that was a huge day for myself and my brother. Jumping up and down in the back car seat, laughing, just being kids. It is true that we all like to eat different foods, taste, smell, even try food that looks different than our regular meals at home and I think that is so natural.In my teens, I was not really into cooking, I enjoyed my magazines after school, listening to music, and just taking a breather. There were times that I would glance at some of my mom's recipes, more out of curiosity than to actually try to cook them. At that time I did not realise that cooking would become my passion one day. Slowly, I would start to look into my mom's recipes a bit more each day and I started to find it interesting as a hobby. Each month I would go into our neighborhood bookstore and pick up my monthly book, until one day I decided to stroll over into the cooking section. That summer was the first time I actually bought a cooking magazine....and I loved it.Cooking and baking started out as a hobby, but now after many years it is my passion. Exploring the cuisines, the spices, the oils, the scents, the variety of smells and tastes that exist. It was and still is an amazing journey without limits.So, come along with me on this adventure, and I hope you enjoy my recipes.Sophie
