I was so excited when I spotted this recipe. It has been years since I have had or even thought of grape leaves and I remembered how good they are. This recipe doesn't disappoint. And additionally it can be made ahead of time for an appetizer or to take on a picnic lunch. Easy to make and delicious... what more could you want besides Adonis himself to feed them to you?
