Pebbernodders are without a doubt my favourite Christmas cookie!

An Easy Greek Meal: Souvlaki Pitas & Tzatziki Recipe
Souvlaki pitas are one of my favourite meals - not only are they easy to make, but they taste absolutely magnificent. I first discovered souvlaki at a local Greek restaurant, and from that very day, I was hooked. I was on a lunch date with my mum at the time, and as soon as we'd finished our meals, I asked mum if we could go grocery shopping to get the fixings so I could make souvlaki that evening for dinner! Caveat emptor: these pitas are quite messy, so do not eat this meal in front of someone you are trying to impress - unless you're trying to impress them with your spilling skills.
