Prasopita, or leek pie. One of my favorite pites! I made the filling and hand-rolled phyllo with my son, Aris... sure to be the first of many cooking projects in the coming weeks.
Tsoureki bubble bread! I’m a bit of a traditionalist and not always keen on recipe mash-ups, but in this covid-induced baking renaissance I got to thinking about my grandma’s yummy monkey bread (aka bubble bread or pull-apart bread) and thought I’d make a Greek Easter inspired version.
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.
Winter comfort food, beef stifado with mashed potatoes. I cheat and used frozen pearl onions from Trader Joe’s because it makes life SO much easier. It also means this dish requires almost no prep!

Tsoureki bread and butter pudding! Possibly even better than the tsoureki itself!
Baby steps back in the kitchen after the birth of my daughter Athina last week! 💜
Getting creative with pasteli, the ancient sesame snack! Batch 1 included honey, cinnamon, pumpkin seeds and cranberries.

Spanakorizo on a Sunday 💚 One of my favorite dishes, there’s probably no tastier way to eat this much spinach in one sitting.
