We took this appetizer to one of the music nights up at the Arborcrest Winery this summer. It was definitely a hit with the group, and when someone recently asked for the recipe, I thought it would be a great time to post it. It wasn't difficult to make at all, but needs a bit of pre-planning for the chill time. It is a recipe only slightly adapted from one I got from a Cooking Light cookbook.
