fresh yumminess

We made this appetizer together on my birthday and it was oh so good! Andrew said it well- "this is the perfect bite of fresh yumminess." We enjoyed coming home from the store with fresh, organic ingredients & cooking away. So easy & so tasty. We even had the leftovers for breakfast the next morning! See the recipe below...
