There’s something incredibly mouthwatering about stuffed foods.  These dishes look exceptionally elegant when placed on a plate, making it the perfect food for your special event.  The variety in textures, colors, and types of foods inside these flavorful plates sparks a certain curiosity and intrigue. Each bite has a surprise within it that may make your palette drift from liking traditional combinations and move on towards new discoveries in pairing foods!  Meats and vegetables alike can be stuffed with unexpected flavors, giving the dish an added dimension. For a culturally-inspired variety of ideas, we are loving this list of stuffed appetizers and sides from Saveur.
