Review

EPIC FANTASY WITH SOME NORSE MYTHOLOGY!!!

What an epic start to a series. I need more…now! This is a debut novel from new author Ashlee Lynn and I can’t wait for more from her. This is a fantasy story with norse mythology thrown in. I loved it being a big fan of norse culture myself. Freialen is a demigod. Her fate is revealed to her. She is to go to earth and she will have multiple mates. She can’t believe what she hears. When she first gets to earth it’s anything but easy. She is taken as prisoner right away. She has to learn to trust in the prophecy and her father’s guidance from above. Soon she learns she is stronger than she thinks. As her story goes on we see her go from mate to mate. Each one had a purpose. But how she finds the next one is a little messy. I don’t want to give away any details. Just know that Freialen is a badass and you’ll be falling head over heels for her mates. And that ending. OMG! I need the next book now. This is defiantly a must read. You won’t be able to put it down!

TOASTED PITA BREAD TRIANGLES

Pita bread is used to make pita wraps and sandwiches, but it is also wonderful as a bread on an appetizer tray for dips.  I remember the first time I had toasted pita triangles and how simply delicious they were served with hummus.  To use it for appetizers, it does need to be toasted or crisped.  Toasted Pita Bread Triangles are one of many appetizer ideas I will be sharing over the next few weeks.  Start with a package of  pita bread or flatbread.

You can use either the flat bread as I have done here or the pocket pita type — it really doesn’t matter.  You can also use either the traditional white pita bread or whole wheat.  Try it plain the first time you make it to just enjoy the simple goodness of this bread.  Then, add some extra pizzazz the next time you make this by adding salt or different types of dried herbs before you bake it.

Toasted Pita Bread Triangles are wonderful served with dips…especially my Hummus Spread and Mediterranean Platter. These are quick to make and add a special touch to any appetizer.

Ingredients

HUMMUS DIP 

Directions: 

1. In a blender combine all the ingredients except the parsley and paprika to be used for garnish. Blend on low speed until smooth. You’ll have to stop the blender often to push down the ingredients. If the mixture is too dry and you’re having trouble blending it, add a few more tablespoons of olive oil to help things along.
2. Scrape the hummus onto a plate. Sprinkle the paprika over the top, drizzle lightly with olive oil, scatter some parsley on top, and serve. You can make the hummus up to a couple of hours before you serve it. Cover the top with plastic wrap and leave it at room temperature.
