  • Stuffed tomatoes

    Stuffed tomatoes = summer ❤️☀️🍅
    It's taken me years to get my Gemista to the level of perfection that is my aunt Magda's. I'm almost there! 
  • White fasolada

    "White" fasolada | Lefki fasolada - This is a bright take on the Greek bean soup staple.
  • Beef lemonato

    Moschari lemonato | Beef lemonato. Super simple braised beef finished with lots of lemon and just the right amount of Greek oregano.
  • Breadsticks

    Wait, who's that? 😊 My son loves my homemade kritsinia, aka breadsticks. Made with spelt flour and lots of sesame seeds, I added some poppy seeds here and there, too. 
  • Fasolada

    Cold day in #LA calls for fasolada, the staple #Greek bean soup that's nourished generations.
  • Psarosoupa

    It's hard to think of a lighter, healthier, more satisfying meal! My version of #Greek fish soup (Psarosoupa) takes inspiration from my aunt, who loves to watch cooking shows and experiment in the kitchen.
  • Rizogalo

    Rizogalo / Ρυζόγαλο - Greek rice pudding with loads of cinnamon on top. Not too sweet, it's best served cold. I make mine with goat milk!
  • 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!
  • Tourlou tourlou

    Tourlou tourlou / Τουρλού τουρλού - the recipe so good they named it twice! 
  • Greek meatballs

    All you need to make the most delicious keftedes / κεφτέδες - #Greek meatballs. My family always uses half pork, half beef for a lighter result.
  • 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!
  • Florinis peppers stuffed with feta and dill

    Florinis / Φλωρίνης peppers stuffed with feta and dill. So simple, salty, and sweet.
