Mushroom Capsicum Treat

Pin

As party appetizers go, most of them are finger food and mostly deep fried. But at home, we prefer quick to make and also healthy appetizers, especially on lazy weekends,  when Salads, appetizers and soup make the most of the evening’s dinner.

Last evening, when S arrived almost 2 hours early from office and asked for something quick before dinner, I quickly scrambled this spicy and tasty appetizer – Mushroom Capsicum Treat- and it was finger licking good ! Goes well as an accompaniment to Hot Rotis and Naans (Indian breads) tooJ Sending this to Blogging Marathon Day 4 under Mini bites.
