Honey-Whipped Feta Dip

Sweet, salty, and cloud-like, this creamy Honey-Whipped Feta Dip is almost unbelievably good– especially considering it only takes 5 minutes to make. Serve it as an appetizer at your next party or holiday get-together, or whip up a batch for yourself to spread on toasted bread or fresh pita.  I’ve been making Whipped Feta Dip…

Garlicky Feta Dip

If you’re looking for a great easy appetizer, try Garlicky Feta Dip. This simple, creamy dip is tangy, flavorful, and always a crowd-pleaser. James now calls this “Trust Your Gut Dip”, which is probably a catchier name for it, truth be told. The story behind it is that I’ve been making this Garlicky Feta Dip…

Mezze Party Platter

I almost flipped the whole damn table over on Friday night. James suggested that we do a date-night dinner this past weekend at our favorite little Turkish hole-in-the-wall and I was all about it. Partially because I am absolutely obsessed with the food there– the creamy hummus, the crispy falafel, the warm pita bread, the butter-soft grilled meats, the…

Roasted Eggplant and Feta Fritters with Tahini Sauce

I won’t sugarcoat it: 2016 has thoroughly and relentlessly kicked my ass. In fact, if social media is to be believed, it has kicked all of our collective asses. But all of that blubberin’ that I love to do aside, we’ve had a phenomenal year in food, don’t you think? I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty…

Whipped Feta Tzatziki Hummus

There was a time, rather recently actually, when I swore my allegiance to a particular hummus recipe. I made some pretty bold proclamations to friends and family, like: “You could fly to the Middle East and try every centuries-old recipe from every beloved grandmother and every frequented street vendor and still never find hummus this perfect.”…

Sun-Dried Tomato & Feta Pull-Apart Garlic Knots

It’s 2015, so I finally decided I should start using that personal twitter account I created 4 years ago.  Now I’m sucked in– I think it was the Foodie Band Name hashtag that sealed my fate.  I used to tell everyone that I didn’t use twitter because I just didn’t get it, but I’m starting…

5 Ingredient Spicy Roasted Red Pepper Dip

I don’t know if Spicy Roasted Red Pepper Dip would typically fall in the Super Bowl Snack category, but I’m here to say that it should.  It should be available at every party.  It should be omnipresent. This is the kind of dip that people eat once and get hooked on, because it’s so simple to make but…

Cucumber-Wrapped, Feta-Stuffed Meatballs

Please do not ask me to detail what I have eaten in the past couple of weeks.  The holidays have turned me into a walking garbage disposal for all things fried, fatty, or fudgy, and just trying to remember exactly what that entails gives me a bit of a stomach ache.  I’m not saying that…

One Pot Greek Chicken Pasta with Creamy Feta Wine Sauce

Back when I was in college, my signature dish was Pasta Greco, an easy-to-make Greek-inspired pasta dish that I adapted from a local restaurant.  When James and I were in the wee-beginning of our relationship and I was just beginning to realize that I could, in fact, make my own food instead of spending all…

Mediterranean Vegetable Lasagna

Okay, I’m just going to lay it out there right away– this isn’t really a lasagna.  Please put down your pitchforks, food-name-purists, and open your hearts to this layered lasagna-esque casserole of zucchini, eggplant, spinach, cheese, and bechamel.  It’s seriously yummy, no matter what you call it in-between mouthfuls. Ever since I first made the Zucchini,…

Zucchini, Feta, and Spinach Fritters with Garlic Tzatziki

You know how I said that the garlicky tzatziki from those Loaded Greek Chicken Pitzas was addictive?  Well, I made these fritters just so I could slather them in that sauce. The Zucchini, Feta, and Spinach Fritters turned out amazingly, by the way.  The taste almost reminded me of Spanakopita, but with the added mild flavor of grated zucchini,…

Loaded Greek Chicken “Pitzas”

Sometimes my cooking “failures” work out even better in the end. When I say “sometimes”, I mean almost never, but this recipe was one exception to the typical disaster that is my kitchen on a bad cooking day.  (Yes, we all have them!)  I wanted to make a regular pizza with Greek toppings, but my dough was…

Freezer-Friendly Athenian Chicken Quesadillas

I’m not ashamed to admit that out of all the awesome places I’ve eaten (and there have been many), my favorite place to frequent has always been a little dive bar just up the road from my mom’s house. It’s an unassuming spot that’s far too small for the amount of locals who crowd in for…

Watermelon Bruschetta with Whipped Feta, Basil, and Balsamic Drizzle

As you might already know, this weekend James and I went to North Carolina to visit my cousin Ashley and her fiancé Evan, and just as I promised, you’re going to hear a lot about it in the next few weeks, starting right now.   First of all, let me just say that Mother Nature…

Feta, Red Pepper, and Herb Frittata

I’m pretty sure that no one will be shocked to hear that “Ramen Parties” were a weekly occurance throughout my sophomore year of college– it being such a broke college cliche and all. You might, however, wonder what a Feta, Red Pepper, and Herb Frittata has to do with ramen noodles.  Back in college, my…

Pasta Greco

I’ve apologized once before for keeping a recipe from you for a week.   I don’t even know how to properly apologize for this one– I’ve been keeping this from you for months now.   Of all things to keep from you, why Pasta Greco?  I have no idea.  This is my go-to recipe.  It is so delicious, and…
