Mediterranean Grill Party!

It's hard to believe that my little man is growing up so fast! He's now 3 months old (seriously, where did the time go?!) and to celebrate and introduce our little one to family and friends, my husband and I threw a party... a 'meet the baby' gathering, if you will. Since we love throwing a party with some kind of food theme, we fired up the grill for a Mediterranean Grill Party!...


Mediterranean cuisine is a perfect choice during the summer. Aside from grilling some of the dishes on our menu, it's on the healthy side and so colorful on the table. Here's the menu I prepared (with some help from my husband)... stay tuned and check back for the recipes of these dishes all this week!



Olive Tapenade over Cream Cheese
Vegetable Crudites



Greek Chopped Salad


Tabbouleh

Dilled Couscous

Balsamic & Oregano Chicken Kabobs



Roast Leg of Lamb

Pistachio Baklava

Fresh Fruit Kabobs


Honey Walnut Brie Tartettes

Here are some table shots of the spread! We had our dining table set up with all the savory items and our home office was where we had our desserts and drinks...

And we can't forget all the smiles that were at the party! It was great seeing such old and dear friends, many of which came from the city...

    Wow, every single thing on your menu looks so good. I can't pick just one thing I want to try making, although the orzo salad with roasted vegetables is catching my eye at the moment.

    I happened onto your site by accident. WOW what a happy accident. Your Mediteranian Grill Party gave me the perfect ideas and menu for my almost daughter-in laws b-day dinner. We both love Greek food and this will be perfect. I am not usually a blogger, but had to tell you how much I love your site. Happy Belated B-day to your beautiful son. I will be back.
    Thanks so much for your energy!
