We have gone to a lot of the outdoor festivals here in the metropolitan area for many years, sandman. Always take home middle eastern food from the Egyptian Festival, A Greek Festival, and a Lebanese festival in September. I did not taste any baklava this year. Or any of the other wonderful desserts or breads that they bake. But it all looked delish!

Not in a grocery store I go to, sandman. But Dazzal might know if they sell them in a particular grocery store.

sandman, kerri, previously when I lived in Colorado I saw stuffed grape leaves at SPROUTS.Fry's grocery store here in the Phoenix area (Same as City Market or Krogers) sell them in cans already made up. If you google in your area, who sells stuffed grape leaves in my zip code area, it may bring up the stores. I did it here, and several grocery stores came up.
Sprouts in this area sells them too, in containers. Sandman, I like the way your picture shows the stuffed grape leaves with lemon wedges. Tastes delicious with lemon. There are different recipes, but I liked the way my Mom made them best.
I make them when I can find grape vines to pick from. Most of the bottled grape leaves are too tough.
Hope you two are well.

SafeInSanity, yup, that's how you make them. My ingredients is a bit different. I don't use dill or dried parsley. I use dried mint leaves, Marjoram spice, and other spices.
