Recipe Types: Appetizers


Eggplant Parmesan Crown

This one is more of a concept for you to play with. Make it mediterranean style with olives, tomatoes, feta and pesto. Make it parmigiana style like I did. Make it with fresh cut tomatoes and basil, and/or a tomato meat sauce. Whatever you decide to use to fill your crown, I hope you’ll love it!


Melon Salsa

A quick and fresh way to enjoy that extra summer melon. This salsa is sweet and spicy in all the right places, and quite easy to make your own. Feel free to play with the flavors depending on which of these melons and herb combos you have on hand, and enjoy!


Fried Cucumbers

This is an old family recipe from a “Legacy” cookbook of senior cooks of the Merrimack Valley. If you’re looking for a change from the “cool as a cucumber” cuke, this innovative recipe is for you!
