Herby chicken hand pies with Greek yogurt phyllo, aka kourou. I set out to make a kotopita (chicken pie) with a rotisserie chicken languishing in the fridge.
Prasorizo, a vegan main dish of sautéed leeks and rice, cousin to the more common spanakorizo (spinach and rice). Simply flavored with dill and lemon, this is as “clean eating” as it gets!
Orange, cinnamon and sesame olive oil cookies. Vegan and perfect for lent. These nistisima (Lenten) koulourakia won’t win any beauty contests, but they are SO delicious and healthy to boot.
Spring vegetables stewed in plenty of Greek olive oil, a dish that’s so much more delicious than you’d ever guess given the few ingredients and near-absence of seasonings (just salt and pepper!).
I love retro desserts, which means I love Jello. Enter Γλυκό ψυγείου, basically translated as “fridge sweet”, which my aunt makes for a cool summertime treat.
Prassokimadopita | Leek and meat pie. Simple and savory filling of sautéed leeks and ground pork.

Fasolakia, a vegan dish of Romano (aka runner) beans stewed in olive oil and tomato with a few potato wedges for good measure.
This year’s Easter koulourakia are better than ever. I use the same recipe every year, from our long lost family friend Georgia.
Today’s feast of roast lamb and potatoes was so delicious. Already looking forward to sneaky leftovers tonight!
Aginares ala polita || Artichokes with spring vegetables. One of my favorite dishes that I should make more often.
Shrimp saganaki, a dish I can’t wait to eat in Greece this summer! If you haven’t tried it, it’s so impressive yet easy enough for a weeknight.

Leftover lamb yiouvetsi. If you ever roast lamb, like I did on Easter, don’t chuck those bones!
