Here’s a quick and semi-nutritious appetizer. I had this recipe sitting in my “on deck” file for about 2 years now. The on deck file is the pile of recipes I’ve clipped or printed out with the intentions of trying. I am determined to start chipping away at the pile, so here is my first chip.

I can remember the exact day I fell in love with grilling. Okay, wait, I must clarify, I don’t actually cook the meat on the grill. That job is my boyfriend, Peter’s, job. Far too messy for the Queen. However, what I mean when I say “fell in love with grilling” is loving the smoky, luscious taste of meat cooked over real charcoal, not the square, lighter fluid infused stuff, the real wood charcoal that actually looks like pieces of petrified wood. »» Ode to Charcoal

So, I guess it was last Wednesday when I decided I wanted to have some company and put together a little Tapas menu. Now, for those of you who have yet to hear of Tapas, basically, they are a wide variety of Spanish appetizers. Truth be told, its just a trendy way to say “Cocktail Party” these days. I’ve been to one Tapas bar in my life. It was (is) never sure how long places last in Philidelphia. Peter and I absolutely cannot remember the name of the place. But, we ordered a Tapas for two, basically a smörgåsbord (did you ever have to spell that word?) We had no idea what each dish was as they came out so the bartender would kindly explain each one. The number of dishes never seemed to end.
