Mediterranean Balls

Menu:
Falafel
Pita
Cucumber Dill Salad
Tabouli
Unsuccessful Tahini Sauce
Baklavah


Tonight Molly and Molly made lots of balls. There were falafel balls, pita dough balls, and mini mozzarella balls. The food was okay, but not the best we've made. We were disappointed with the falafel recipe. We tried frying and baking, but neither ended
up how we wanted. Fried had no taste and baked didn't have the crunch factor we wanted. The Tabouli was dry because Molly #1 didn't want tomatoes in it (gross) and the Tahini was a hot mess. It tsated like sh*&! We used the store bought version from Trader Joe's (we won't tell if you wont't). The highlights of the meal were the pita, cucumber salad and the baklava. The pita although labor intensive was worth the effort and the cucumber salad was refreshing and could have been a great addition stuffed
in the pita. Molly #2 took charge of the dessert and it was fantastic! Flakey and not too sweet. 

Cooks Notes: The more wine you drink the better the food tastes! So invite some friends and crack a bottle open!
