Opa! I always thought Spanakopita would be so hard to make, but let me tell you - this is one of the easier appetizers I’ve ever cooked. My mom, a vegetarian who loooooves spanakopita more than most other foods, said it’s the best version she’s ever had, beating out her favorite Greek restaurant in the area. So there you have it. Make this, make your mom happy (and pretty much everyone else).
Read MoreBuffalo Cauliflower
When my mom made these for Super Bowl, I honestly didn't know if I was going to like them. I've never eaten a chicken wing in my entire life (and have no desire to do so - too labor intensive), and I am so over the cauliflower craze. That being said, I could not stop eating every. last. bite. The great thing about these is that you don't have to be vegetarian to love them (although any vegetarians in the room will be thrilled). You can also use gluten-free breadcrumbs and you've got the least gluten free-y, veggie dish I've ever tried. You would never know this was (sort of) healthy. Make for a party, nosh on it at home, or place it in front of you while watching TV. This is a crowd pleaser - even if the crowd is just you.
