Although I've been to Greece, I can't say we had a 3 cheese spread with roasted red peppers while we were there. So I don't have anything to compare Trader Joe's Tirokafteri to, but I can tell you, TJ's version wasn't spicy (for me). Feta is just one of the cheeses in the mix, so…
Happy New Year, folks! I'm not much for new year's resolutions, but coming off two weeks of insane indulgence, it's time to get back on the wagon. I won't be vowing to hit the gym only to poop out by the end of January, but I will be trying to eat more vegetables and get more whole grains into my diet.
So let's start off the year with this gorgeous muhammara dip, shall we? Using a base of roasted red peppers, it makes for a pretty healthy snack with pita chips or carrot sticks and offers a nice alternative to hummus. It's fantastic alongside tzatziki for grilled chicken or lamb kebabs, too.
Yesterday, while doing early morning yardwork, Wolf and I were talking about breakfast.
"You want me to go get doughnuts?" (An offer that's hard to refuse.)
"Mmm, doughnuts. I'm surprised you want doughnuts."
"I thought you might want doughnuts."
After this many years of marriage, yep, we still have these conversations. I'm not usually one to be lukewarm on doughnuts, especially Top Pot, but after a relatively light dinner last night, I thought, we need some real breakfast.
