Ingredients
A dish to ignite all the senses--the colors, smells, taste and texture will be sure to satisfy. Get creative with your use of nuts and dried fruit! If you don't have apricots and pistachios, go ahead and use what you do have--pecans and raisins, for example, would be another great option.
