I first had these little critters in the Caribbean, served at a sea-side seafood boil. It took serious bravery to get past their name! My hosts laughed when they saw the look on my face. Such a horrible title for this an amazing appetizer!
Are you brave enough to give them a try?
Are you brave enough to give them a try?
15-20 whole medjool dates
1/4 cup of Greek Feta Cheese
Sea salt for sprinkling
Almonds or Pecans
Directions:
Easiest appetizer ever! Mash your feta cheese with a fork to soften it. Split your dates open and gently fill each one. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt. Top with almonds or pecans.
When you offer your friends one of these grotesquely named delights they're sure to be hesitant. After one bite, they'll be hooked. The sweet-salty combo delights the palette.
You can impress your guests with your attention to dietary detail and explain that starting with a high-fiber, high-protein appetizer reduces the impulse to over-eat because your body feels satisfied sooner. And they're so delicious! Before they have time to compliment your kitchen savvy, the plate will be clean and you'll be on your way back to make more!
