Juicy lamb souvlaki made with marinated pieces of lamb grilled to perfection. I like to serve these skewers with tzatziki sauce and pita bread, or garlic roasted potatoes and a Greek salad.

Grill skewers until desired doneness, 10 to 12 minutes, basting with the reserved marinade and turning occasionally for even cooking.

Cheddar Pecan Stuffed Mushrooms
In my husband's family, we have a tradition of making a variety of appetizers as our meal for Christmas Eve. My sister-in-law brought these one year and they have been one of our favorites ever since. I don't generally use the large stuffing mushrooms, though you can if you're serving this as a first or second course in a formal dinner. Instead I use regular button mushrooms so 15 or so people can have two or three each.
