The Gypsy Chicks’ Summer Terrine for a Party!, This recipe is dedicated to my wonderful teammates of the Cafe ZMAKK Gypsies of ZWT4! We had such fun and became such good friends that I devised this hot-weather terrine as a permanent gesture of our friendship! They suggested the ingredients, which are light and healthy! The terrine can be served in thick slices as a starter, or as part of a lunch menu This is no throw-together family dish, but neither is it as intricate as it looks! Prepping some of the veggies can be done the day before It’s fun to make and really creative Will be great on your gourmet lunch or dinner table! Should you decide to make it, read the recipe first — the principle is simple Use a vegetarian jelling agent if you prefer Also, other mushroom types can be used; used what I had at hand I give both US and metric measurements
