Great appie - I would not normally have tea cups etc in here but I did this appie for the High tea event in the Photo forum. We loved the appetizer and will make it again for sure. I used small 4" pitas so split in half two made enough for 3 persons appetizer - served with a Mart Mart of course Thanks for posting
