Perfect Party Food I

Fantastic finger food for parties, picnics, or light meals. $5 for this set of 5 recipes.


FOR MCDOUGALLERS: There is a little oil in the tapenade and non-dairy butter in the cookies. Everything else is oil-free, but you'll want to find an oil-free pie crust for the onion pie.

  • Mediterranean Red Lentil Pâté - elegant spread for crackers
  • Tabouli - such a fast dish with bulghur or quinoa as the base
  • Hijiki & Olive Tapenade - tangy & tasty
  • French Onion Pie/Tartlets - great appetizers & finger food
  • Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies - a special, cool dessert
