Grilled flatbread
Baba Ganouj
Hummus
Tabouli
Couscous with Sundried Tomato and Kalamata Olives
Lamb kabob with Tzatziki
Lemon chicken kabob
Grilled squash, artichoke, carrots and asparagus

The guests are bringing desert. I'm expecting brownies from a box.

The best part about this is the leftovers. I can use the grilled flatbread to make pizza, topped with fresh basil and mozzarella. I can use the couscous for stuffed chicken. The hummus and baba ganouj make a pretty healthy snack.
Do you do anything special with the couscous to make it tasty? we dig couscous in our house, but lately I have been a bit burned out on it. Looking for ways to spice it up.

Also, your hummus and baba gnanouj is from scratch? that is impressive.

Your menu sounds amazing. Good luck and please come back and report. As Leb says, share the wealth...post some recipes!
