Full on Falafel

Since my last journey to the Hippie Grocery Store aka Whole Foods, which I am not mocking only lamenting that we don't have one close, I bought some falafel mix that I have been hungry for ever since so we decided to have some falafels and couscous for dinner last night.

1 pkg falafel mix, prepared (I bake mine instead of frying, just to be a little healthier)
lettuce
tomato
crumbled feta
dressing of your choice or hummus
pita bread, split
Couscous mix, prepared

Prepare couscous, I usually put mine in the rice cooker. Prepare falafel mix with water and let sit about 10 minutes. Form balls and bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes on each side. Stuff with lettuce, tomato, falafels, feta and dressing or hummus. Serve with couscous and top with smoked paprika 
if you are that kind of girl and I am!

Peach on Earth

We had our Office Christmas Party the other day and decided on a three ingredient no-fail recipe! It always delivers and rarely leaves leftovers. Peach-BBQ Lil' Smokies 2-14 oz package of Lil' Smokies cocktail sausages 1-16 oz jar of Peach Preserves 1-16 oz bottle of BBQ sauce Put all ingredients into a crockpot, stir and cook on high for 2 hours or low for 4 hours.  Serves 12-15, I would double for larger crowds.

Doritos Pumpkin cheese ball

1 Block cream cheese ½ C salsa (pace salsa works best) 2-3 C crushed nacho doritos Bell pepper stem Small round bowl Press and seal wrap Non-stick spray Mix with an electric mixer the cream cheese and salsa. I mix it well and until it is quite creamy/fluffy. Place a piece of press and seal over a small bowl and spray with nonstick spray. Put in cream cheese and salsa mixture and wrap up. Let chill overnight or at least 2 hours. When ready to serve unwrap ball and roll in crushed doritos and top with a bell pepper stem. I like to serve it with blue tortilla chips for Halloween, this is also great for Thanksgiving.
