Flaming Cheese Saganaki

It is often said that fried cheese is an appetizer. But I could hardly consider it like this because it is very filling and it would be impossible for me to eat anything else after that. And if you add some sauteed veggies you will have a meal that will keep the hunger away for many hours.
