Directions
Dolmas (Stuffed Grape Leaves), I don’t remember when I first eat a dolma, but have had a passion for these little treats for years I usually buy a few in a specialty deli, but finally found a recipe I really enjoy and make them periodically for appetizer parties I don’t recall which site this came from, but I think they’re delicious , I became enthralled with these treats when my local grocery store deli added them as an offering next to the olives at their olive bar They are a bit of work to make so find a friend and do them together They are YUMMY!
