Parcels Method
You will only be using the tops
of the spring onions so cut the tops off the spring onions
and place in a bowl then pour boiling water over them and
drain then cut into strips and set aside. Cut 4 slices mozzarella
cheese then wrap each slice in a slice of ham and tie with
a spring onion strip. Make the sauce by placing garlic, oil,
lemon juice, basil and pepper into a screw top jar and shake
well to combine. On individual small serving plates arrange
a Mozzarella Parcel with tomato and olives then drizzle the
sauce over the top and serve immediately.

BEEF
AND VEGGIE LETTUCE CUPS RECIPE
This
recipe will teach you how to make Beef and Veggie Lettuce
Cups. It is a quick and easy recipe to make. These
appetizers do not just taste good but look good to and once
you taste them you just want to come back for more.
I make the Beef and Veggie
Lettuce Cups up when I am having family or friends over and
I just want to make some small appetizers up to snack on before
the main meal. The colour of the green crunchy lettuce leaves
looks absolutely fantastic with the beef and veggie mixture
in them and the best thing is you can make the filling up
the day before and just warm it again before putting it in
the lettuce cups. You can also have the Beef and Veggie Lettuce
Cups as a main meal with a garden salad as my husband and
I sometimes do.
