Whichever method you choose, its vibrant fresh herbs, punchy seasoning blend, and crispy-yet-tender texture will be the star of any sandwich or mezze board.  I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…

Homemade Pita Bread

If warm, fluffy, poofed, and perfectly-pocketed pitas are what you’re looking for, it doesn’t get better than this recipe for Homemade Pita Bread. They’re surprisingly simple to make and leagues better than the store-bought stuff! Before stumbling upon my first go-to pita recipe, I’d already been dreaming about making it for years. There’s just something…

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…

Greek Avocado Salad with Garlic-Dill Vinaigrette

How many more times do you think I’m going to bundle up in my puffiest ski jacket before taking a step outside and realizing that the sinisterly frigid season is decidedly over– not just “it’s technically spring” over, but “I can go to the grocery store with a t-shirt on and survive strolling through the refrigerated section” over?

30 Minute Chicken Gyros with Tzatziki

Despite the fact that we still have plastic containers filled to the brims with dips and finger foods shoved in the refrigerator, begging to be eaten, I decided last night that it was about time we incorporated a real dinner into our week. Preferably one without cheese– you thought you’d never hear me say that,…

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.”…

Easy Greek Tzatziki Chicken Salad

Is it too late for me to start working on getting a bikini bod in time for summer? Yes? Probably? But I mean I have this Easy Greek Tzatziki Chicken Salad, and that has to count for something. You see, this spin on chicken salad fulfills some pretty difficult criteria: it’s healthy, it’s simple, and it…

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…

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…
