Recipes

  • Pasta salad

    Are you starting to feel summer yet? ☀️⛱💛 Something about the weather this fine weekend feels like summer! Made this summery pasta salad to match the mood 😎
  • Warm roasted carrot, walnut, feta and giant couscous salad

    This salad makes a great lunch or side dish. I think it’s even special enough for Thanksgiving, but easy enough for anytime! The sweet roasted carrots go soooo well with tangy, salty feta. 
  • Horta

    Horta, a catch-all word for a plethora of greens enjoyed in Greece, most commonly boiled till tender and served with olive oil and lemon juice.
  • Black-eyed pea salad

    Black-eyed pea salad, or Mavromatika salata, is a classic. The dried beans are quick to cook, but I actually often use a bag of frozen black-eyed peas.
  • Zucchini, pea, shrimp and feta fettuccine with fresh mint and dill

    Zucchini, pea, shrimp and feta fettuccine with fresh mint and dill. This was something I made out of scraps lying in the fridge and it turned out to be so good. Love when that happens!
  • Black-eyed pea salad

    Black-eyed pea salad / Μαυρομάτικα σαλάτα. A deliciously fresh and simple summer salad, perfect to build a meal around or serve as a BBQ side!
  • Purslane and cucumber salad

    Purslane and cucumber salad - a delicious use of that pesky purslane from your garden! Purslane is the top plant source of omega 3s and delicious to boot. Not sure why it hasn't earned "superfood" status yet!
  • Melitzanosalata

    Melitzanosalata / Μελιτζανοσαλάτα - #Greek eggplant caviar that's smoky and sweet all at once. There are so many variations of this dish, but my go-to is the bare bones version that really lets the eggplant shine.
  • Creamy vegan potato salad

    Creamy vegan potato salad | πατατοσαλάτα. The secret is mixing the still-warm potatoes with ample #Greek olive oil

    Salad for tonight's #GreekDinner - Lahanosalata / Λαχανοσαλάτα.
