I have my cooking club coming up next week and I'm looking for some good suggestions for Mediterranean "Pampered Chef" recipes for the main dish and the dessert. I have the appetizer already - doing one of the tapenades with pita bread.

Thanks in advance for your help! I think my creative brain cells are still on vacation in Cancun.

Thanks!
Nikki

Thanks!! I had found that recipe already (simply because of the word Mediterranean in it) - was looking for some additional ones! Thanks so much!!
 
The Olive Tapenade recipe for the MFP? It is in the MFP e-book :-)
 


Hi Nikki,

I'm excited to hear that you have a cooking club coming up next week! Mediterranean cuisine is one of my favorites, and I have some great "Pampered Chef" recipes that I think you and your club will love.

For the main dish, I recommend our Greek Chicken Souvlaki. It's a delicious and easy-to-make dish that features marinated chicken skewers, grilled vegetables, and a creamy tzatziki sauce. It's perfect for a group and can be served with pita bread or rice.

And for dessert, our Baklava Cups are always a hit. They're a fun and unique twist on the classic dessert, and they're made with our flaky phyllo dough and a sweet honey and nut filling. They're sure to impress your guests and satisfy any sweet cravings.

I hope these suggestions help and get your creative brain cells back in action! Let me know how your cooking club enjoys these dishes. Happy cooking!

Best,
 
Mediterranean chicken pitas and baklava cups are easy, delicious, and full of flavor!
